A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair and a red kumkum mark on his forehead stands outdoors in front of a stone wall and trees. He wears a white garment with a gold-bordered shawl over one shoulder and a red garland of rose petals over white flower garlands, plus a heavy ceremonial gold necklace of beaded links with a central gold pendant. He looks down and to the side, with one hand partly visible at the lower left. Probable Swamiji: long swept-back hair, gold ceremonial necklace and garlands, presented as a garlanded honoured guest in white and gold.
