A man with long swept-back dark hair, a horizontal white and red forehead mark, and a rust-brown wrap over his shoulders sits on an ornate white and red throne, smiling and raising his right hand in greeting. A silver trident stands at right beside the throne. Behind him a red curtain hangs, and seated devotees fill the hall, including a woman in white with a saffron-orange shawl and folded hands at left, a woman in a yellow sari, and an older man in white at lower right. A camera tripod and a bright yellow object appear at left edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated man's long swept-back hair, rust-brown wrap and enthroned position with a trident match the page's Navaratri darbar event.
