A photograph of a seated figure in a red-orange robe on an ornate gold throne with a red fur-like cushion, one arm raised holding a green leafy sprig, with a white tilak on the forehead and long dark hair. Two attendants kneel in orange cloth: one on the left wears an orange-red headcloth and a rudraksha-style necklace, another in the centre wears an orange wrap with white markings on the shoulders, holding a silver tray of pink and yellow flower garlands. A carved wooden screen and brick walls form the courtyard setting, with a red-and-blue striped mat on the floor. Swamiji (probable) is seated centre on the throne, identified by the ceremonial gold throne and long swept-back hair, the orange-red robe and the rudraksha and ceremonial presentation of a sacred abhishekam-style session.
