A photograph of a robed figure seated on an ornate golden throne with lion-shaped armrests, draped in a multicoloured flower garland of red, yellow, purple and white blooms. The seated person wears saffron-orange robes, a red and white flower garland, a golden crown-like headpiece and gold bangles, and is smiling with palms pressed together in greeting. A brass oil lamp burns above the throne, with rows of brass lamps, hanging lamps and a silver ceremonial stand decorated with yellow flowers around them. Flower-filled brass plates sit at the base of the throne, and the dark walls are lit with small flickering lamps. Probable Swamiji (saffron robes, crown, flower garlands, seated on a throne).
