A seated man in an orange turban and orange draped robe with pink edging sits smiling against a backdrop of yellow and magenta marigold garlands and a silver ornamental panel. He wears layered gold bead necklaces with a central gold pendant and a gold serpent armlet on his upper arm, with hands clasped in his lap and a red bindi on his forehead. The appearance of long hair under the turban, orange saffron clothing, and multiple gold necklaces matches the Swamiji (probable) cues, so he is treated as a probable in-person Swamiji candidate.
