A photograph of a temple staircase with white steps and a red-and-white striped wall. A barefoot man in a long orange-saffron robe, with long dark hair and a tilak on his forehead, descends the steps toward the viewer, and a second man in orange with long hair follows behind him against the wall. Above, a man in white dhoti and white kurta, with a yellow shawl, stands with his hands folded near a red railing, with green foliage behind him. The scene looks like a temple precinct entrance. Probable Swamiji (saffron robe, long hair and tilak cues) is the central descending figure.
