Close-up photograph of a bearded man seated before an ornate gilded throne with intricately carved golden panels. He wears a brown turban topped with a gold crown-like headpiece set with jewels, a blue-white vertical mark on his brow, a gold hoop earring, rudraksha malas and layered ceremonial gold necklaces with beads across his bare chest. Appearance-based cues of long swept-back hair, turban, ceremonial gold ornaments and rudraksha malas match the Swamiji (probable) candidate, shown in a seated, honoured setting.
