A smiling man sits in front of an ornate gold-embossed throne with scalloped and floral relief. He wears a rust-red turban with a silver brooch, a red-orange wrap draped over his bare shoulder, a red tilak on his forehead, and long gold bead necklaces with gold clasps. Red-beaded armlets are on both upper arms, and long dark hair falls past his shoulders. Appearance-based candidate present: Swamiji (probable), in the central seated position, with cues of long hair, a turban, saffron-orange clothing and ceremonial gold necklaces.
