A photograph of a seated man in a green turban and green robe on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, under a gold umbrella canopy. He wears a large gold bead necklace and a red thread, hands clasped in his lap, eyes closed. Around him, several people in white dhotis and cream saris with orange-red shawls sit on the floor facing him, with brass plates of offerings and an orange cloth in front. Painted, colourful ceremonial pillars flank the throne. The turbaned man matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of a turban, ornate gold necklace and a green sannyasi robe, seated on a throne as the central figure. Background includes a large printed backdrop of a temple scene and a gold deity medallion on the throne.
