A photograph of a seated man on an ornate ivory-and-black carved throne with cushioned armrests. He wears a saffron-orange robe draped with a leopard-print shawl and a long ceremonial gold bead necklace, and has long dark hair, a red bindi and white vibhuti on his forehead. His hands rest clasped in his lap, and a glossy marbled backdrop fills the background. Several Swamiji cues are present: swept-back long hair, saffron clothing, gold ornaments and a throne seat, so the appearance is a probable match for Swamiji seated in person.
