A photograph of a seated man in a gold crown with purple ribbon, gold armlets and bracelets, multiple red and pink garlands, a gold necklace and a brown-red shawl, smiling with palms pressed together in namaste. Seated on a gold-upholstered chair before a large backdrop of red, yellow, green, purple and white flower garlands. In the foreground at left, an elderly bald man with white beard and glasses wears an orange robe and white garland, also with palms joined, facing him. Probable Swamiji (probable) appears as the crowned, garlanded figure receiving honour; the cues are the crown, garlands and ornate gold jewellery, and the seated figure is the honoured person while the orange-robed man is a devotee offering respects.
