A photograph of a man seated on an ornately carved gold throne with a red cushioned back, smiling with eyes closed. He wears a red-brown and gold-bordered draped garment, a long multi-strand gold bead necklace and a red bindi, and his bare arm is in a silver bowl of yellow rice dish he is touching. A lit oil lamp and a brass figure stand behind him. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, ornate gold throne, saffron-toned draped clothing and a long ceremonial bead necklace, seated in a pujaka-style setting.
