A seated man in a red-and-maroon dhoti and shawl sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne carved with lion-headed armrests and a fan-shaped back, upholstered in red zebra-striped cushions. He wears a maroon turban with a fan-pleated top, a rudraksha mala with a large bead necklace, gold bangles and white sandalwood markings on his arms. His hands rest together in his lap and he smiles while looking to one side. Beside him stands a brass oil lamp with a lit flame, and to the right is a gold-framed doorway draped with maroon and gold silk. Probable Swamiji (probable) seated on the throne, identified by the turban, rudraksha mala and saffron-maroon robes.
