A man seated on an ornate gilded throne with a red and gold cushioned seat, flanked by gold lion-form armrests. He wears a red-orange patterned turban with a small red mark on the forehead, an orange-saffron wrap draped over one shoulder, long gold-and-bead garlands, and beaded red bangles on both wrists. A peacock-feather fan rests against the left armrest and a silver trident stands to the right in front of a red curtain with gold trim. Probable Swamiji, seated on the throne in saffron clothing with ceremonial gold necklaces and a turban; the appearance-based identification is uncertain. Single seated person, photographed in a decorated ceremonial stage setting.
