Close-up photograph of a man with swept-back dark hair and a small red bindi on his forehead, wearing an orange saffron wrap over bare shoulders and a heavy gold ceremonial necklace of large beads. He sits before an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork and studded knobs, raising his right hand in a blessing gesture while his eyes look downward. A blurred green natural backdrop is behind him. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron wrap and gold beaded necklace on a golden throne, seated in a blessing gesture.
