A bearded man with long dark hair sits on an ornate gilded throne draped with a leopard-print cushion, smiling broadly. He wears a rust-red shawl over his bare upper body, a gold necklace, and a white and red forehead mark. Both hands rest on a large silver-coloured bowl set in front of him on a cloth covered with grains. Behind him stands a gilded carved panel with decorative scrollwork, and a golden figure of a deity is partly visible at the right edge. This is a photograph of a single person seated on a throne, with the appearance-based label Swamiji (probable) given the throne, long hair, red shawl and gold necklace cues.
