A photograph of a single man standing barefoot on a striped rug between deep red satin curtains that frame an entrance. He wears a maroon turban with a gold emblem, a rust-orange draped robe with gold border, a heavy gold-beaded necklace with a large gold pendant, and gold armlets and bangles. Behind him a large screen shows a blue-and-white backdrop with a deity figure and a trident, and small decorative figurines sit at his feet. Appearance cues include a distinctive turban, ornate gold necklace and saffron-orange robe, consistent with a probable Swamiji (probable) presence, though this is an appearance-based label only.
