Black-and-white photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate, carved silver throne with a leopard-print cushion, speaking into a gooseneck microphone. He wears a tall dark turban topped with a crescent moon ornament, a small bindi on his forehead, and a dark saffron-style shawl over his bare shoulders. A heavy multi-strand necklace of large beads hangs on his chest. His hands are raised in gesture as he addresses an audience during a satsang. Visible in the scene: a carved silver lion or elephant armrest, and dark draped backdrop. Appearance-based label: a person, seated in the speaker's position, the turban with crescent and bead necklace being the qualifying cues.
