A man with long dreadlocks and a short beard sits cross-legged on an ornate silver throne carved with lion heads, swan-like finials and floral scrollwork, with leopard-print cushions on the seat and armrests. He wears a rust-red saffron-style wrap over bare shoulders, a thick gold bead necklace with a large gold pendant, and a red thread on his wrist, with a red bindi on his forehead. A red velvet cushion sits beside him. A dark stage backdrop surrounds the throne. The appearance is consistent with a person, seated on the throne in a ceremonial setting, with a devotee's role only inferred from the setting.

He has a sacred mark on his forehead and long hair, smiling with his arms resting on the armrests. A silver staff stands at the left. Swamiji (probable): the page identifies him as Swamiji, and the long hair, gold ornaments and ornate clothing are consistent with that presentation.2017-09-28September 28 20172017-09-28September 28 20172017-09-28 +1 copiesA photograph of a single seated man on an ornate silver throne with leopard-print cushions and carved lion heads. He wears a red-orange saffron-coloured cloth wrapped over one shoulder, a red sash, a heavy gold necklace with a large gold pendant, a gold waist belt, and a red-and-gold wrap. He has a red tilak on his forehead and long swept-back hair. His right hand rests near his chin and his left hand on his knee, and he smiles. Presentation cues (long hair, saffron clothing, gold ornaments, ceremonial throne) suggest the Swamiji (probable), seated in person on the throne. The background is dark with a silver ornamental backrest behind the throne.2017-09-28September 28 20172017-09-28 +1 copies
