Evening photograph at an outdoor stage with a white canopy edged in gold and blue, and stage lights overhead. A seated figure in a white turban and white garment with a gold border, wearing a long gold necklace, reaches out to rest a hand on the head of a man in a white shirt and trousers with a red-and-white garland, who stands with palms pressed together in greeting. Beside them a man in white bends forward at the foot of the white-draped throne-like seat, which has a red cloth and flower garland on it. Other men in white clothes stand behind on the stage and in the dark crowd at the right. The seated figure appears to be a probable Swamiji, matching the white turban, gold-bordered robe and gold necklace on a throne, with the page noting his presence at the Salem conference.
