A photograph of a man in a red turban and red-and-gold saffron-toned robe with heavy gold bead necklaces, seated on a gold-trimmed brown leather chair, smiling as he embraces a bare-chested man from behind with his arms around his neck. The bare-chested man wears a white sacred thread and stands with his back to the camera. Behind them are pink draped fabric and a gold ornamental disc. A red bindi marks the seated man's forehead. The seated man's appearance, turban, gold necklaces and robe are consistent with Swamiji (probable), seated as a figure receiving honour, but the identification is appearance-based only. A faint circular logo appears at upper left and a copyright line sits at lower right.
