A man with long, swept-back dark hair sits on an orange-draped white throne-like chair in an outdoor temple courtyard. He wears a sleeveless orange robe draped over the body and a heavy ornate gold necklace of large beads, and his bare feet rest on an orange cushion. Behind him are a carved stone deity shrine with a seated figure, brass lamps and a brass bowl of yellow flowers, and a red iron railing with greenery. The orange clothing, long hair and gold necklace are cues consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, so the figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (probable) seated in person.
