A photograph of a figure seated on an ornate gold throne with a tall gold crown, wearing orange saffron robes and a long white and red flower garland, smiling and raising one hand in greeting. Another man in orange robes with a shaved head leans in from the left, reaching toward the throne. The throne and backdrop are covered in pink, yellow and red flowers, petals and garlands, with a white beaded decorative panel behind. Appearance cues (saffron robes, crown, garland, throne) are consistent with Swamiji (probable) seated in honour as the central figure.
