A photograph of a seated man with long dark hair and a red bindi, wearing a saffron-orange robe and a thick garland of white flowers with red rose-like accents. He sits against a white backdrop and smiles slightly while a man in a white shirt with his head bowed leans in from the left, apparently offering a gesture of reverence. A small white-and-orange stick or offering item is visible at the right edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated saffron-robed man has long swept-back hair, a saffron robe, and a garland, which are the qualifying cues for the page's Swamiji identification, and he is physically present in the scene.
