A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, hands joined in his lap. He wears a rudraksha mala and a ceremonial gold necklace, with a green-and-yellow headband. The throne is draped in a dense garland of marigolds, purple and white flowers and white jasmine strands, and a multicoloured canopy with fringe rises above him. Brass oil lamps with lit flames stand on either side against a red backdrop with woven panels, on a reflective white floor. The setting resembles a satsang or darshan hall. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long, swept-back hair and saffron robes with rudraksha and gold ornaments, but the appearance is only a candidate.
