A smiling man seated on a dark red velvet throne with gold lion-head armrest carvings, against a large backdrop of red, yellow, white and green flower garlands. He wears a saffron-orange wrap over the shoulder, a heavy gold necklace with a long mala-style strand, gold armbands and bangles, and has a red bindi and white tilak on his forehead, with long dark hair swept back. Probable Swamiji by visible cues: long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces, saffron clothing and seated on a ceremonial throne. The image is a photograph; no other people are visible.
