A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne, smiling and gesturing with his right hand, wearing a rust-orange dhoti and shawl with a gold necklace and gold waist belt, a red tilak on his forehead, and long dark hair swept back. Several robed devotees in orange and white sit on the floor and in chairs around him, and a framed portrait sits on a table in the foreground. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, identified by the long swept-back hair, gold ceremonial necklaces and saffron-orange clothing. A silver ceremonial staff with a finial stands at the left edge. Several people in the background wear orange and white garments.
