A seated man with long dark hair and a red bindi with white tilak on his forehead sits with eyes closed and hands clasped in his lap on a gold-trimmed throne-style chair. He wears a sky-blue shawl draped over one shoulder, a rudraksha mala with a central rudraksha bead, a pearl necklace, and rudraksha armbands with white bead accents. Behind him hang pink and orange floral garlands against a black backdrop, with an orange cloth draped over the armrest. The setting appears to be a stage during a seated devotional or meditative occasion. The sitter's appearance fits the page's Swamiji cues of long hair, rudraksha malas and a ceremonial throne, so this is a probable in-person candidate, though the identification is based on appearance rather than face.
