A close-up photograph of a man seated before an ornate gold-embossed throne, speaking into a black microphone on a stand at right. He wears a rust-red turban decorated with a crescent moon ornament, a feather, and jewelled brooches set with red and green stones, plus a red-brown cloth draped over bare shoulders, multiple gold chains, a gold pendant, and a rudraksha-style mala. A red tilak mark is on his forehead and his long hair falls behind his shoulder. Probable Swamiji (probable): the swept-back hair, ornate turban and gold ceremonial necklaces match the page's indication that Swamiji spoke at this event, and he is seated at a microphone as a speaker. Background shows purple drapery and a gold throne.
