A photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate silver throne with a leopard-print cushion, wearing a deep red turban, a red saffron-toned shawl over bare shoulders, and a long gold necklace with a large gold pendant. A silver staff with a carved finial stands beside him, and his right hand rests on a silver lion-head armrest. Swamiji (probable): the rust-red turban, ceremonial gold necklace and long swept-back hair are consistent with the page's identification. Behind him are a silver-embossed backdrop and a dark stage with coloured lights.
