A standing man walks along a corridor past metal handrails, wearing an ornate red and gold turban with a peacock-feather motif and a red-and-gold embroidered shawl draped over his shoulders. He wears a saffron-yellow dhoti and sleeveless top with a red sash, gold armlets and bangles, a long orange-and-gold beaded necklace with a gold pendant, and a red bindi on his forehead. Behind him, painted red, blue and white columns with floral and bird motifs stand beside a glass window and a wall board. A probable Swamiji is shown in ceremonial saffron and gold regalia, distinguished by long swept-back hair, the crown-like turban, ornate red shawl and the saffron-gold costume, and is the only physical person visible in the photograph.
