A photograph of a seated man on an ornate red throne with a gilded frame and a golden crest. He wears a red-and-white beaded garland, a tiger-striped garment, layered gold-toned necklaces, bangles and a red bindi, and his eyes are lowered. Gold-toned ornamental armrests flank the throne and a dark-haired figure is partly visible in the lower foreground. The scene suggests a seated sannyasi receiving attention at an indoor gathering. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, a rudraksha-style necklace and ceremonial adornment on a throne.
