A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a patterned cloth in a richly decorated stage setting. He wears a gold crown, a white flower garland, a rudraksha mala and a large gold pendant. Behind him hangs a swing draped with tiered tassels in green, yellow, purple, red and white, and garlands of marigolds and roses. Two painted sculptures of standing deities flank the scene, one holding a trident. Golden lion statues and multicoloured ceremonial umbrellas frame the stage, which is lit in pink and purple. The man appears to be a probable Swamiji by his crown, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and gold necklace.
