A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests, backed by a large floral arrangement of yellow marigolds, red and white flowers and green leaves. He wears a saffron-orange turban with a small jewelled ornament and a red dot on the forehead, an orange silk wrap over the shoulder and draped down to bare feet, a heavy gold bead necklace, and rudraksha-style beaded bracelets and armbands. His hands are folded at his waist and he looks to the side. Probable Swamiji by visible cues: long swept-back hair, turban, saffron clothing and ceremonial gold necklace, seated in a place of honour. Gold-coloured yellow and purple flower garlands drape the throne base, and a small golden figure sits at the lower left. No other people are visible.
