A photograph of a smiling man with a long dark beard and swept-back hair, wearing a rust-orange shawl over bare shoulders, a red-brown wrap and gold armlets. He wears layered garlands of white jasmine and green leaves and pink-red flowers, rudraksha-style bracelets on his wrists, and a red tilak mark on his forehead. His palms are pressed together in front of him in greeting. Behind him is an ornate gold repoussé throne back with scrollwork and foliage patterns. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues of long swept-back hair, orange shawl, rudraksha-style bracelets, gold armlets and garlands match the page's identification of Swamiji, presented as the central seated devotee-speaker figure.
