A photograph of a seated man in orange-saffron robes, wearing an orange and gold turban, a long orange-beaded necklace with large gold bead ornaments, and long swept-back hair, extending his right hand to bless the head of a small child in a yellow zipped jacket. The seated figure is on a dark red velvet cushioned seat. Beside him, a woman in a cream sari with gold border and a red bead necklace looks on with a smile. Behind them, several women in white and red-trimmed garments stand near white room fans, and a pink and gold cloth bundle rests on the seat in the foreground. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in saffron robes, turban, rudraksha-style gold bead necklace and long hair is a presentation consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, and he is performing a blessing of the child.
