A seated man in an orange saffron turban with a red bindi and an orange sannyasi wrap sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with intricate repoussé carvings and a gold arched backdrop. He wears multiple strands of gold beaded necklaces and gold bead armbands and wristbands, and smiles broadly with hands resting in his lap. Swamiji (probable) is shown in this photograph: long swept-back hair, saffron turban, rudraksha-style gold necklaces and saffron robes are visible. Marigold garlands in yellow and red appear at the top of the frame.
