A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange clothing with a rust-red turban and long dark swept-back hair, wearing a leopard-print garment under an orange shawl, layered gold and rudraksha beaded necklaces, and gold armlets. He holds a gold-coloured ceremonial implement and sits beside a large golden bull statue at the left edge, facing a crowd of seated devotees, some in white, in a large hall with a red curtain and a blurred screen behind. Probable Swamiji by appearance cues: the swept-back hair, turban, saffron-orange dress and rudraksha necklaces; the page attributes him to this event. A golden staff stands at the right edge.
