Photograph of an ornate golden throne with lion-shaped armrests and a leopard-print cushioned seat, set in a dark hall. A seated man with long dark hair wrapped in a high black turban, a red-orange cloth draped over his shoulder, sits behind the throne, eyes lowered. Brass oil lamps with lit wicks and strings of small lights hang nearby, and a brass kalasha-like vessel sits on a tray at left. A gilded deity murti appears at the top left. A partially visible grey dog sits in the lower left foreground. The man's face and appearance match the cues associated with the page subject, so he is treated as a person seated in person.

He has a tall dark swept-back hair bun, white tilak on forehead, and sits with palms pressed together in greeting. Beside him stands a large polished silver lion sculpture, another gold lion behind, and hanging brass bells with string decorations. A brass oil lamp and kalasha-like vessel sit on a tray at left. In the foreground, a hand holds a small lit oil lamp and marigold garlands lie on a platter at lower right. Swamiji (probable): the orange robe, rudraksha malas, and swept-back hair with ceremonial throne match the page's Swamiji reference, so the seated figure is labelled as him with uncertain appearance-based identity.2018-03-25Photograph of an ornate gold throne with a leopard-print cushion, flanked by golden lion sculptures and hanging brass bells with lit string lights.
