A smiling man in saffron-orange robes and a matching turban sits on an ornate gold throne with a leopard-print cushion. He wears a red bindi, layered rudraksha malas, a large gold pendant necklace, gold armbands and bangles, and his hands rest calmly in his lap. Behind him is an elaborately carved golden backdrop. A figure in the foreground is partially visible at left. Swamiji (probable): the saffron robes, turban, rudraksha malas and gold necklace match the appearance cues for the Swamiji candidate, seated in person.
