A photograph of a seated figure in orange-saffron robes reclining on a gold-framed, velvet-cushioned seat, raising a silver trident (trishula) high with one hand. Garlands of red, yellow and white flowers hang around the neck and the figure wears a gold ceremonial necklace and bangles. Behind, a red and yellow ceremonial umbrella with fringed tassels stands on a red carpet, and a large vase of purple and pink flowers sits nearby. In the background at upper right, a bald man in a pink-white robe and a woman in a pink top join their hands in greeting. Swamiji (probable): the reclining figure has swept-back hair, saffron clothing, a large gold necklace and garlands, cues consistent with the page's claim.
