A smiling man with long dark hair coiled high, wearing an ornate gold crown with a red stone centre and gold ear ornaments, a red tilak on his forehead, and heavy gold necklaces over a brown-red garment. He is framed by a large arrangement of yellow marigolds, red flowers and white blooms with green leaves. Swamiji (probable): the long dark hair, ornate gold crown and gold necklaces are the qualifying cues, and he is seated in a flower-decorated setting, consistent with a ritual honouring.

He wears a heavy gold necklace with large gold beads, a gold pendant and a brown-red garment, and is almost entirely framed by garlands of yellow and red marigolds and green leaves. Small gold statuettes of a deity couple appear at the lower right edge. The face and posture suggest a person from the adorned crown, long hair, gold ornaments and ceremonial garlands, though this is based on appearance only.2016-07-19July 19 20162016-07-19A seated man with long dark hair coiled up under a gold crown-like headpiece smiles with eyes lowered, a small red mark on his forehead.

He is framed by a dense arch of marigolds in yellow and orange, red roses, white flowers and green leaves, set against a golden backdrop.2016-07-19April 14 20182018-04-14 +1 copiesJuly 09 20172017-07-09July 19 20162016-07-19Close photograph of a smiling bearded man with long dark matted hair swept up and a gold crescent moon ornament on the crown, a red bindi and white tripundra on his forehead. He wears a rust-brown garment, multiple strands of red and white flower garlands, a heavy gold necklace and gold armband. Behind him are yellow and red marigold garlands and green leaves. Appearance cues include the crescent crown, swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery and garlands; the page identifies him as Swamiji, so this is a probable Swamiji depiction in an in-person setting: Swamiji (probable), seated and smiling during a garlanded event.2016-07-19July 19 20162016-07-19
