Close portrait photograph of a smiling man in an ornate cream and gold turban decorated with a red and gold floral brooch and sequins. He wears a red robe with a gold border, a long rudraksha mala draped across the chest, a rudraksha armlet, and a red bindi on his forehead. A long wavy black hairstyle falls past his shoulders, and a sheer gold shawl hangs at the right. Behind him stands an elaborate gold repoussé backdrop with floral and scrollwork patterns. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), identified by the long hair, ornate turban, saffron-red robe and rudraksha malas; the page states he was present at this event.
