A photograph of a smiling man with long swept-back black hair, wearing an orange saffron robe, a red bindi on his forehead and a long rudraksha mala, seated on an ornate gold throne with red-and-black tiger-striped cushions. A thick garland of pink flowers hangs around his neck and he raises one palm in a greeting gesture. A bald man in a light grey striped shirt leans forward with bent head in the lower left foreground, appearing to offer respect. Strings of white and purple flower garlands hang on a dark backdrop behind the throne. The appearance-based label Swamiji (probable) applies to the seated figure, whose orange robe, long hair and rudraksha mala are visible cues, and he is shown receiving respect on the throne.
