A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne (peetha) with red cushions, framed by an arch of marigolds and other flowers in yellow, red, purple and pink. He wears a cream-coloured turban, a white dhoti-style garment draped over one shoulder, a gold armlet, and layered gold necklaces with a large gold pendant. He sits with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed, a red bindi on his forehead. A gold footstool sits before the throne. Behind him a red backdrop shows Kannada text and a large word reading 'Dasara'. Swamiji appearance is probable: long swept-back hair, turban, ceremonial gold necklaces and white ritual garments, seated on a throne; the person is a devotee-honoured figure seated for a Dasara event.
