A photograph of a single man standing on a stage in a red turban, red tunic draped over one shoulder and a leopard-print wrap with red lower garment. He wears heavy gold necklaces, a garland, gold armlets and bangles, and a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him stands a large rock-like backdrop with carved figures and a small deity murti, and a golden lion-shaped object sits on a draped red table at the right edge. Red stage cloth covers the floor, with audio equipment in front. The appearance is consistent with a probable Swamiji (probable) given the turban, distinctive gold ornaments and ornate clothing, though identity is uncertain.
