A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with intricately carved, gilded backrest and lion-like armrests, holding a silver ceremonial sceptre in his right hand. He wears long rudraksha mala strands, a gold necklace, bangles and a red tilak on his forehead, with a small microphone at his face. Hanging brass lamps and a small gilded stool with a red cushion appear in the foreground. The man has long, swept-back dark hair, a crown or turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklaces, matching the appearance-based candidate for Swamiji (probable), seated as a teacher on stage.
