A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork and a cobra-hood top, upholstered in red cushions. He smiles broadly with a small red tilak on his forehead, long dark hair, a full beard, and wears a draped saffron-orange cloth over bare shoulders. A golden trident stands at the left, a garland of red, yellow and white flowers hangs on the throne's back, and a dark starry backdrop completes the stage. Based on the appearance cues of long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial throne, this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated on the throne during the Sadashivoham stage programme.
