A photograph of a man with long, swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead sits on an ornate gilded throne with a red cushion. He wears a saffron-orange shawl and sleeveless saffron garment, with garlands of white flowers and red roses around his neck, and presses his palms together in anjali mudra with eyes closed. Behind him, other figures in saffron robes and flower garlands are partly visible, and a gold-embossed canopy frames the scene. Swamiji (probable) is the seated central figure, identified by long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, floral garlands and the ceremonial throne.
