He wears a maroon turban adorned with gold ornaments, multiple strands of rudraksha beads, a large gold necklace with a pendant, gold armlets and bangles, and maroon dhoti-style trousers with a beaded waist belt. He holds a silver trident (trishul) in one hand. In the left panel he raises one hand in a greeting gesture; in the right panel he holds a mudra-like hand near his chest.

Probable Swamiji with distinctive ceremonial cues: the ornate maroon turban, layered rudraksha malas, gold necklaces and the trident, presented as a studio portrait.2019-11-10November 10 20192019-11-10November 10 20192019-11-10November 10 20192019-11-10A standing male figure in a studio portrait against a deep maroon backdrop, holding a silver trident in his left hand while his right hand is raised in a blessing gesture. He wears a maroon turban adorned with gold ornaments, a bare-chested look with layered red rudraksha malas and an ornate gold chest piece, a red waist cloth with dhoti-style drapery, gold bangles and red beaded armlets, and is barefoot with red beaded anklets. Clothing and ornaments are red, maroon and gold, and the trident is silver. The figure's appearance (ornate turban, layered rudraksha malas and gold necklaces, trident) is consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, so this is a probable identification based on these cues, and he is the only physical person present.2019-11-10November 10 20192019-11-10November 10 20192019-11-10November 10 20192019-11-10November 10 20192019-11-10November 10 20192019-11-10
