A man seated on an ornate red and gold throne with tiger-striped red upholstery and gold lion-head armrests, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears an orange-saffron robe, an orange turban, a long gold necklace of ceremonial beads, and long swept-back dark hair; he has his hands clasped in his lap. Behind him are a gold-framed deity murti panel, bamboo matting, and orange and green floral decorations with flower garlands at the base of the dais. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), matching the page's claim, based on the turban, saffron robe, long hair and gold necklace; the throne and setting alone are not the basis.
