Night procession photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver palanquin-style throne with a red cushion, draped in red and gold fabric, with a peacock-feather canopy overhead and multicoloured tassel decorations on either side. He wears an orange-brown robe, a pink and white flower garland, a rudraksha mala, multiple gold necklaces and ornate gold armbands, and holds a red-and-gold staff while smiling. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long dark hair, a beard, a forehead marking and abundant gold jewellery with a rudraksha mala, matching the sannyasi cues, so the candidate is shown in person on the throne. Attendants' hands and a silver-lion ornament are visible at the edges.
