A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gilded throne on a stage, with a lion-headed armrest and red zebra-striped cushions. The figure wears an orange-pink embroidered garment with an orange shawl and a gold necklace, with long dark hair, and sits beneath a green-lit gilded canopy hung with yellow, white and purple garlands. Behind the throne is a golden deity murti in a niche, a painted trident and a tilak-like white sign on a brown backdrop. Oil lamps stand at left and white and red flowers decorate the platform. Under the chair-and-canopy setup, the figure's appearance is consistent with the page's candidate cues (long hair, orange ornate clothing, gold necklace), so this is a probable match for Swamiji seated in person on the throne.
