A photograph of a seated man on an ornate silver throne decorated with carved lions and a leopard-print cushion. He wears a maroon turban, a sleeveless maroon garment with gold border, and a heavy gold necklace with a large gold pendant, and he smiles while his hands rest together in his lap. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, a crown-like turban, ornate gold necklace and saffron-maroon clothing mark a seated ceremonial presence. Beside him, partially visible people sit in the foreground, one with a rudraksha mala and white markings, and a silver staff stands at left. Blurred colourful decorations fill the background.
