A photograph, rotated on its side, of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved floral gold panels and red cushions. He wears a rust-brown robe with an ornate gold waist ornament, gold bangles, and a thick gold chain necklace, and is draped in a long garland of green leaves and white flowers. He holds a green fruit in one raised hand, smiles broadly, has long dark hair and a dark beard, and wears white ash marks on his forehead. Another person's hand and foot are visible at the edges of the frame, and a striped white cloth lies beside the throne. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in the rust-brown robe, gold ornaments and long swept-back hair, shown in a throne setting.
