A smiling man with long dark hair and a small red tilak on his forehead sits before a golden throne backdrop framed by a dense arch of marigolds, roses and white jasmine garlands in yellow, purple, red and green. He wears a lavender-purple dhoti-style wrap and a heavy gold bead necklace reaching his chest, with a second gold bead mala at his neck, and raises both open palms toward the viewer in a blessing gesture. A red cushioned seat is visible at the bottom edge. Swamiji (probable) is shown seated in the centre, identified by long swept-back hair, ornate gold mala necklaces and a ceremonial lavender wrap set against a throne and garlanded backdrop.
