A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests and a red cushioned back, under a gold umbrella-shaped canopy. He wears orange robes, a long gold-beaded necklace and a rudraksha-style mala, with long swept-back hair and a tilak on his forehead, and sits with palms pressed together in namaste. The throne sits on a golden pedestal, flanked by white and pink floral arrangements, palm fronds, and a garland of yellow, red and purple flowers arching behind against a white draped backdrop. Compatible cues include long hair, saffron robes, ornate gold jewellery and a mala; the page names Swamiji at this event, so this is a probable identification. Setting appears to be a festival stage.
