A photograph of a seated man on an ornate golden throne with carved gold filigree backrest, smiling broadly. He wears an orange-saffron shawl over his shoulders and a long white and red floral garland with green leaves, and has a red tilak on his forehead and long swept-back dark hair. Two men flank him: on the left a man in a khaki-beige t-shirt leans in toward him with his hand raised, and on the right a man in a white shirt bends forward with hands near the garland. Behind them are gold oil lamps, an orange curtain and greenery. The seated figure's distinctive orange shawl, swept-back hair and ornate throne are consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, though the identity is an appearance-based probable match.
