A photograph of a single man seated cross-legged on a low wooden platform against a dark maroon curtain, lit in pinkish stage light. He wears a leopard-print headwrap topped with a small white crescent, long dreadlocked hair, a red tilak on the forehead, layered rudraksha malas and a pendant, and a maroon shawl over his bare shoulders with leopard-print armbands and a leopard-print waistcloth. A leopard-print drum stands to his left. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, a crescent crown and rudraksha malas, cues consistent with the page's claim, though the appearance is only partly clear.
