A photograph of a seated man in a large brown leather throne-style armchair with carved wooden armrests. He wears an orange-red shawl over his shoulders, gold bangles, a gold necklace and a red bindi, and holds a pair of dark glasses to his face while smiling broadly. Beside the throne stands a woman in an orange sari with a rudraksha mala, her hands pressed together in greeting. Seated audience members in orange, yellow and pink clothing fill the foreground and background of a large hall. The man's appearance with long swept-back hair, ornate gold adornments and orange-red clothing is consistent with a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in a place of honour, though the image alone cannot confirm the identity.
