A photograph of a bare-shouldered man in a rust-red shawl seated on a silver-edged seat in a red-walled temple setting, smiling with eyes closed. He wears a long pink flower garland, gold chain necklaces and a white tilak. A second person in the lower left, partially visible, is leaning in and appears to be handling or adjusting something near him. Behind them stand bronze sculptures and a curved metal ornament. The seated man's features match the Swamiji description, with long swept-back hair, a crown-like tilak and ceremonial gold necklaces, so this is a probable Swamiji. Two people are visible.
