Photograph of a seated man on an ornate golden throne (peetha) with a leopard-print cushion, draped in multiple garlands of red-and-yellow marigolds, white jasmine and green leaves. He wears a dark red-maroon garment and a red tilak on his forehead, and rests one arm on the throne's armrest while holding a garland. Behind him a large golden bronze-toned relief of a multi-armed deity murti with an elaborate crown rises above the throne, flanked by a gilded lion-shaped carving on the left. A man in an orange-yellow kurta stands at the right edge holding a walking stick. Flower petals are scattered on the stage floor in front. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears long hair and saffron-maroon attire with a rudraksha-style setting and ceremonial garlands, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji.
