A bearded man in a rust-brown robe and a long white flower garland with pink and yellow flower tassels stands with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed and smiling, a white horizontal tilak and red dot on his forehead and a brown rudraksha mala at his chest. Behind him, a tall golden-shafted parasol with red, yellow, green, navy and white fringes is held by a bare-chested young attendant in orange dhoti and rudraksha mala. Other attendants in orange dhotis and rudraksha malas stand nearby; one holds a brass lamp and bell, another a red tray. The setting is an open outdoor ground with trees behind. Swamiji (probable): the robed man with the long hair, white tilak and rudraksha malas matches the page's Swamiji reference, but identity is inferred from appearance cues only.
