A man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red upholstered cushion, eyes closed, palms pressed together in namaste. He wears a white turban, a pale gold and silver embroidered brocade kurta with a matching shawl over the shoulder, a gold bangle and long garlands of white jasmine and red-orange flowers draped around his neck. A red kumkum dot marks his forehead. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair falls past the shoulders beneath the turban, and he wears ceremonial gold necklaces and ornate silk attire on a throne, consistent with the page's reference to a Swamiji session.
