A seated man in saffron-orange robes wears a long white and red flower garland and a red bindi on his forehead, with long dark hair falling past his shoulders. He sits on a white cushioned seat in front of a white backdrop while a man in a white shirt stands at left with both palms raised toward him, appearing to give blessing or darshan. The seated figure has long hair, saffron clothing and a rudraksha-style red and dark bead garland, and the page identifies this event as Swamiji's, so the appearance-based candidate is Swamiji (probable).
