Close photo of a smiling bearded man with a tall black braided turban, wearing a crescent ornament, a green bead band, rudraksha beads and a gold jewelled pendant on his head. White and red tilak marks decorate his forehead. He wears a saffron-orange robe, multi-strand gold ceremonial necklaces with a pink-and-white lotus garland, and raises one hand in a blessing gesture against an ornate silver repoussé backdrop. Probable Swamiji by appearance cues: crown-like turban, rudraksha, saffron clothing and ceremonial gold necklaces.
