Close photo of a man seated before an ornate silver repoussé backdrop. He wears a tall golden crown with a fan-shaped halo and a vertical dark tilak mark on a white forehead band. He has a full beard, a long dark braid falling behind the shoulder, gold earrings, and multiple layered gold beaded necklaces over a rust-orange shawl. A tall silver ceremonial staff stands at left. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues of a crown, long hair, saffron-orange clothing and ornate gold necklaces are present, so this is a candidate for the in-person figure seated on the throne-like seat.
