A photograph of two people in saffron-orange ceremonial clothing against a plain wooden-panelled backdrop. The foreground figure on the right wears a tall orange turban, a long dark wavy hair style, a gold-toned garland of large beads, a gold-trimmed orange shawl and a gold armlet. He is bending slightly forward and looking down. Beside him a shaved-headed man in orange robes and a rudraksha-style mala, with a red tilak on his forehead, gestures as he speaks. Partially visible people stand at the edges and bottom of the frame. Given the page's Swamiji flag and the visible cues of the turban, long hair, orange clothing and gold garland, the central figure is a Swamiji (probable) receiving honour during a public event.
