A photograph of a bearded man seated on a deep maroon velvet throne, smiling and looking to his left. He wears a rust-red turban with a small decorative pin, a rust-red shawl over bare shoulders, heavy gold beaded necklaces with a large gold pendant, and pink-and-white flower garlands draped across his chest. Rust-red and gold bangles are on his wrists and arms. A microphone on a boom stand is in front of him, and an orange cup sits at the lower left. Behind him is an ornate gold, jewelled and embroidered backdrop with a dark red curtain. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears a turban, rudraksha-style gold necklaces, ornate ceremonial garlands and rust-red robes, consistent with the page's Swamiji reference.
