A seated teacher sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head arms and a red cushioned platform, smiling and resting his hands on his knees. He wears a white turban, white dhoti and shawl, a red and white rudraksha-style mala necklace, beaded bracelets and an armband. Beside the throne stands a brass oil lamp topped with a rooster finial, and a potted green plant sits at right. In front, flower garlands in yellow and red lie on a gold base. Behind him a painted backdrop shows a dusky sky and, at right, a painted figure with a jewelled crown and blue-and-gold garment gazing toward the teacher. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, identified by the turban, white ritual dress, mala necklace and the throne setting; appearance cues are moderately distinctive.
