A photograph of a smiling seated man on a swing-like seat draped with white flower garlands, in front of a large ornate gold throne with a red cushion and tiger-striped cloth. He wears a red-pink robe, a dark turban-like headwrap with gold ornament, a heavy gold and beaded necklace, and gold bangles. Brass and copper oil lamps with peacock-shaped tops and a trident stand nearby, and a gold trident leans beside the swing. The setting suggests a puja or ritual reception. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair under a turban-style headwrap, ornate gold necklaces and a red-pink robe, consistent with the page's reference to a Pushpabhishekam and padapuja event.
