A man with long, swept-back dark hair sits on an ornate cream upholstered throne with gold-carved wooden armrests, one hand resting against his cheek. He wears an orange-saffron shawl draped over his shoulder and body, a red and gold border, and a multi-strand red rudraksha-style bead mala around his neck, with a red bindi on his forehead. An orange cloth is draped over the armrest, a rolled white paper sits beside him, and red and pink flowers with green leaves are arranged at the left and right edges against deep red velvet drapery. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, saffron shawl and red bead mala are the cues for this candidate, who is physically present.
