A photograph of a bearded man seated in front of ornate deity figures decorated with sequined and jewelled garments. He wears a rust-brown and gold robe, a white flower garland, layered gold necklaces and bangles, and a white forehead mark with a red bindi. He holds a silver trident, and a crescent ornament sits in his hair. Gold lion-head ornaments with red cloths rest in the lower foreground. The appearance is consistent with the Swamiji (probable) cues of a crown and trident, ornate clothing and gold necklaces, seated in a ceremonial setting.
