A man seated on an ornate silver throne with lion-head armrests draped in leopard-print cushions, in a darkened hall at a Navaratri darbar. He wears a golden crown-like headpiece, a red-orange saffron robe, a gold chain, and layered pink and white flower garlands, with a red tilak on his forehead. He smiles while resting his hands on the armrests. The elaborate silver backrest with scrolled and floral carvings and small finials fills the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair beneath the crown, saffron robe, and ceremonial gold necklace cues, presented as the darbar's central figure.
