A photograph in profile of a smiling man with long, swept-back black hair and a red tilak on his forehead, wearing an orange top and a striped orange-and-white shawl draped over his shoulders. Behind him stands an ornate golden structure decorated with red and white flower garlands and yellow blossoms, with a red jewel-like ornament visible at right. The setting appears to be a festival or temple occasion. Swamiji (probable) cues here are the long swept-back hair, orange clothing and shawl, and tilak, so the person is treated as a probable in-person candidate.
