A photograph of a smiling man seated before an ornate golden throne with floral garlands of red and white flowers. He has long dark hair, a red kumkum mark on his forehead, a saffron-orange robe and a multi-coloured leaf garland around his neck. A silver trident and a golden trident stand beside him, and a child in the foreground with a red bindi and white forehead marking is partly visible. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, identified by his long swept-back hair, saffron robe, ceremonial garland and the throne setting; the appearance cues are reasonably distinctive. The setting suggests a temple or celebration with devotees nearby.
