A smiling man with long dark hair and a full beard sits on an ornate silver throne encrusted with red, green and blue gemstones, with tiger-striped cushions and carved elephant armrests. He wears a rust-red robe, a pale pink and white flower garland, layered gold chains, a large gold pendant, gold bangles and gold earrings. A white tripundra mark with a red bindi is on his forehead. His right hand rests on an elephant armrest and his left arm is raised. The background is dark foliage. The appearance matches the Swamiji description from the page, with cues including long hair, ornate gold and ceremonial dress on a throne, so the identification is probable from appearance only.
