A smiling man seated in front of an ornate gold-leaf backdrop, wearing a white and gold-striped turban decorated with a golden band and a peacock feather, with long dark hair falling behind him. He wears a teal and gold brocade kurta with a gold chain, holds a white cloth in his lap, and gestures with one hand, bangles on his wrist. A red tilak marks his forehead. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, turban, peacock feather and ornate ceremonial clothing are consistent with the page's Krishna Darshan context, and he is physically present in the photo.
