Close photograph of a smiling man with long dark hair swept back, a white horizontal forehead mark with a red vertical tilak, and a full beard. He wears a rust-red shawl over bare shoulders and a gold pendant necklace. The background is a blurred golden, shimmering surface. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, red shawl, ornate gold necklace and sacred forehead markings are the qualifying cues for the probable identification.
