A photograph of a seated man on an ornate silver throne against a deep red draped curtain, with silver tridents flanking the stage. He wears a black turban, an orange-red robe, a long garland of golden beads and a pink-white flower garland, and an ornate gold pendant. His hands are raised palms outward in front of his chest, eyes closed, in a blessing or prayer gesture. The throne carries lion figures and silver floral carving. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears a black turban, saffron-orange robe, ceremonial gold necklaces and rudraksha-style beads, matching the page's Swamiji reference.
