A photograph of a bearded man with long dark hair seated on an ornate gilded throne carved with lion heads and scrolling motifs, draped in leopard-print cushions. He wears a rust-brown dhoti-style garment, a long white and red flower garland, multiple gold necklaces, gold armlets and bangles, and holds a small object in his right hand while smiling. A golden trident stands to the left against red drapery. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, ceremonial gold necklaces and a garland, with a throne setting; he is a seated figure on a throne in a photograph.
