A photograph of a man seated on an orange-draped throne-like chair in a temple setting. He wears a sleeveless saffron-orange robe and a heavy necklace of large golden beads, with a red mark on his forehead. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders, and his hands rest folded in his lap. Behind him stand brass pots, a brass kalasha-style vessel with marigold garlands, and a pink-robed deity murti. The chair has gold-coloured fittings at its arms. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial gold beaded necklace, seated on a throne as an honoured guest.
