A seated man in an orange-saffron robe and a tall black crown with a gold ornamental headpiece raises both open palms toward the camera while smiling. He wears layered gold necklaces, a rudraksha mala with brown beads, a gold pendant, gold bangles and a bracelet, and a red bindi with white tilak. Behind him is a highly ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork and peacock-like motifs. Swamiji (probable): the crown, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold cues are distinctive, and he is physically present in the photo.
