Close-up photograph of a smiling man wearing an ornate gold crown with a jewelled Shiva-lingam style emblem, white and lavender drapery, and a dark bead-and-stone chest garment over bare shoulders. He has a black beard, a white forehead band with a red tilak, a rudraksha bead earring and layered gold and rudraksha necklaces. Behind him are highly ornate gold-toned carvings. Probable Swamiji (probable) in a crowned ceremonial presentation, with a rudraksha mala, ornate gold crown and bead-covered garment as the appearance cues.
