A photograph of a man seated on an ornate throne-like seat decorated with a heart-shaped arch of embroidered and jewelled panels in red, green, blue and purple, framed by garlands of white, yellow, orange and purple flowers. He wears a gold crown, a large gold and bead necklace over a white and gold garland, bangles, and a red and gold dhoti or cloth, and holds a silver trident. Two golden lion statues flank the throne, and the setting suggests a ritual or festival occasion. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair, gold ornaments, a rudraksha-style bead necklace and a crown-like headpiece, consistent with the page's description of a Swamiji event, so the appearance is a probable in-person candidate.
