Close-up photograph of a smiling man with swept-back dark hair and a short beard, bare-shouldered with a dark wrap, wearing a garland of white, yellow, red and green flowers over his shoulders and a gold chain. A red tilak mark is on his forehead. He sits against a leopard-print cushion and a shimmering silver backdrop with pink light. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), with the cues of swept-back hair, flower garland, gold necklace and a ceremonial bare-shouldered wrap, seated in a ceremonial setting.
