A smiling man in orange-red saffron robes with a gold-bordered red shawl sits in an ornate gold-patterned armchair, one arm resting on the chair's wooden armrest. He wears a gold-and-bead necklace, a red bindi and tripundra-style markings on his forehead, with his long dark hair pulled back. Beside him on a wooden side table stands a large arrangement of red roses, white flowers and green leaves against a dark red velvet curtain. Swamiji (probable): the person has long swept-back hair, saffron robes, a rudraksha-style bead mala and ceremonial gold necklaces, consistent with the page's reference to him at this event.
