A man in saffron-orange clothing sits on an ornate gold throne upholstered with red velvet and a tiger-striped cushion. He wears an orange turban with a small white ornament, an orange robe, a red-and-gold rudraksha mala, a white necklace and a bracelet on his upper arm, hands folded in his lap. Two polished brass oil lamps stand beside the throne against a dark background. Swamiji (probable): the saffron and ornate clothing, orange turban and rudraksha mala match the page's identification of him as the seated figure, and he is physically present in the photograph.
