A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with lion-head armrests, draped in red tiger-striped cushions and garlanded with yellow, red, purple and white flowers. He wears a peach-and-orange embroidered kurta with a saffron shawl, a gold necklace and a red bindi, and his long, swept-back dark hair falls past his shoulders. A distinctive presentation with long hair, saffron-toned ornate clothing and gold necklace and a seated throne setting gives an appearance-based probable Swamiji label. Brass oil lamps with lit wicks stand to the right against a green-lit backdrop with a green-and-yellow ceremonial fan. The scene is a ceremonial dais with no other visible people.
