A photograph of a man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban seated on a gold-carved throne decorated with marigold and purple flower garlands. He has a long swept-back hairstyle, a heavy gold bead necklace and a gold armlet, and he smiles while handing purple flowers to a bare-chested boy in a royal-blue dhoti with a sacred thread. Behind him, a second child with painted face and gold earrings in a maroon top reaches toward a flower tray. Gold deity-style carving and a red backdrop complete the stage. Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne in the centre, distinguished by the orange turban, long hair, saffron robes and gold necklace.
