A seated figure in orange robes and an orange turban sits on an ornate red and gold throne against a dark blue draped curtain, raising one hand in blessing with a rudraksha mala around the neck. Long garlands of yellow, purple and red flowers hang over the throne. In front on a patterned red rug are silver and brass bowls of fruit, sweets, flatbreads and savouries, with silver oil lamps at each side and a small flame and incense smoke rising from a tray. A digital clock display reading 1921 sits on a white pedestal at left, and a small wooden box with items stands at right. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears orange robes, an orange turban, a rudraksha mala and a flower garland on a throne, offering a blessing gesture.
