A seated figure on a golden throne with lion-head armrests and an ornate gold backrest is covered in a thick layer of pink rose petals and white flower garlands. He wears a red-orange garment, gold necklaces with a pendant, and bangles, and has a red bindi and flowers in his hair. He is smiling broadly with eyes closed, his hands resting on red cushions. A trident-like staff stands at the left edge and a tiger-striped cloth lies beneath the throne. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues include the long hair, ornate gold jewellery and saffron-toned clothing on the throne, matching the page's note that Swamiji was at this event.
