A man sits on an ornate red upholstered throne with a gold-trimmed back, looking downward with a calm expression. He wears a rust-brown garment with a gold border draped over one shoulder, long rudraksha malas around his neck, and a gold pendant necklace. A red bindi marks his forehead, and his hair is swept back. A water bottle sits at the lower left edge of the frame. Candidate matches the swamiji presentation cues of swept-back hair, rudraksha malas, ornate gold jewellery and saffron-toned clothing, so he is labelled Swamiji (probable) as an in-person candidate. The image is a photograph of a seated person on a throne.
