A photograph of a seated man in an orange saffron sannyasi garment with long swept-back dark hair, wearing a multicoloured flower garland and a white flower garland, reaching out to hand something to a small boy. A woman in white clothing and a child in a khaki top lean in from the left, with a second orange-robed attendant behind. The seated figure sits on a gold-ornate throne with cushions, backdrop of gold carved panels and floral arrangements with red, pink and orange flowers, and a brass bowl with offerings on the right. The seated figure's long hair, saffron clothing and ornate garland are visible cues, consistent with Swamiji (probable), seated and receiving devotees.
