A standing figure in a temple courtyard wears an orange silk dhoti with gold-bordered pleats and a deep maroon shawl draped over one shoulder and trailing from the hand. The figure wears a large maroon turban with gold piping and a central white stone, a heavy gold multi-bead necklace, and gold armlets and bangles, with long dark hair and a red tilak on the forehead. Behind is a stone wall with carved relief panels, a brass lamp stand, and a golden deity image; a metal railing runs along the lower edge. The figure's distinctive ornate garments, long hair and gold adornment are appearance cues consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable Swamiji appearance, shown in person.
