A photograph of a bearded man with long dark hair seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne with carved lion-head armrests, wearing a rust-brown robe, an orange shawl draped over one shoulder, and a long gold-chain necklace. He has a white forehead band with a red dot and is gesturing with one open hand. Behind him stand two people in white ritual clothing, and a silver staff with a finial is in the foreground. The setting is a bright hall with red-and-white walls. The appearance matches the Swamiji (probable) cues of long swept-back hair, ceremonial gold necklace and saffron-orange shawl, seated on a throne. Watermarked photo credit omitted.
