A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned seat, surrounded by a garland of yellow marigolds and purple flowers. He wears a beige turban with a red bindi on his forehead, a brocade maroon and gold kurta embroidered with silver and gold, layered gold necklaces and a gold ceremonial pendant. He rests one hand against his cheek with a slight smile, and a cream shawl drapes over his lap over red and black tiger-striped fabric. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues of long swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery and ceremonial dress match the page's claim, placed here on the throne as the seated figure. Hold the image as a single seated person; no other physical people are visible.
