He wears an orange saffron wrap draped over his shoulders, a long rudraksha mala of brown beads, and a thick white and orange beaded garland. His long dark hair is swept back, and he has a white vertical tilak with a red dot on his forehead. The wrap, mala and long swept-back hair are the cues consistent with the page's Swamiji label; the identification is probable rather than confirmed from appearance.
