A photograph of a person seated on an ornate gold throne with carved golden lion-head armrests and red tiger-striped velvet cushions. The seated person wears a deep red-brown turban with a gold and jewelled brooch, saffron-orange robes with gold borders, and long multi-strand ribbed gold beads reaching the chest, with a small clip-on microphone on the robe. The person is speaking with hands resting on the cushions, one foot bare. Behind the throne is a large red-toned framed portrait of a person in red robes holding a mala. Swamiji (probable): the seated person shows several cues including the crown-like turban, ornate gold necklaces and saffron robes, consistent with the page's Swamiji presence, though the appearance is only a tentative match.
