A photograph of a man seated on an ornate golden throne with a red cushion, in front of a backdrop of white, yellow and red flower garlands. He wears an orange turban with a jeweled brooch, an orange shawl draped over a white garment, rudraksha beads and gold bangles on his arms, and a red bindi on his forehead. His palms are pressed together in anjali mudra and he smiles. Swamiji (probable): long-established appearance cues are limited here since the turban and shawl are saffron and the seat is a throne, but the figure is seated in a ceremonial setting with rudraksha malas and ornate orange clothing, consistent with a sannyasi receiving honour.
