A smiling man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests and orange cushions. He wears a deep crimson pleated turban with gold trim and a small brooch, a red forehead mark, and a multicoloured embroidered sherwani with a crimson shawl, layered gold necklaces and a red silk dhoti-style lower garment. A silver staff topped with a bird finial rests beside him. Behind him hang garlands of marigolds and roses in red, yellow, white, green and purple. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, crimson turban, ornate ceremonial clothing and gold necklaces match the page's claim, though this is an appearance-based label only.
