A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on a silver-framed chair under a canopy hung with colourful beaded strings and small decorative animal figures. He wears a maroon-red turban, a rust-red shawl over the shoulders, a dark red dhoti, a leopard-print undercloth, a long multi-strand gold and rudraksha-style mala, and a gold pendant, with bangles on his arms. A silver staff stands beside the chair, a water bottle sits on a small wooden table, and a bright red fabric backdrop fills the background. The man is smiling and gesturing with one open hand toward someone off to the side. Bare feet rest on the seat. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated in a throne-like chair, with a turban, shawl, long mala and gold ornaments as the qualifying cues.
