A photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate gold repoussé throne with a large arched backrest, in front of dark red drapes. He wears a maroon-red turban with a jewelled ornament, a red-brown shawl over bare shoulders, layered gold chains, a pendant and matching red-beaded armlets, and holds his hands together in his lap. A microphone stands at his mouth, and a small glimpse of a brass vessel appears at the lower left. Appearance cues (turban, rudraksha-style beaded armlets and gold chains, seated on a throne) are consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, labelled as probable.
