A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a carved gold backrest, wearing an orange saffron wrap over bare shoulders and a long gold bead necklace, with a small red mark on his forehead and long swept-back hair. He looks down toward two people in front of him: a man in a white shirt seen from behind, and a woman in an orange and yellow patterned salwar kameez with her hands pressed together in añjali. A brass oil lamp and a small table with fruit and offerings stand to the right, and a stylized forest backdrop with an electric fan is behind. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, an orange wrap and a long gold bead necklace on a throne, consistent with the page's claim.
