A photograph of a smiling man with long dark hair and white vibhuti marks on his forehead, wearing an orange robe and a large garland of red, pink, yellow and white flowers with green leaves. He stands with both palms pressed together in greeting, beside a tall golden trident. Beside him stands a bearded man in orange robes with a red mark on his forehead and gold-beaded necklaces, holding the trident and wearing glasses. Behind them are a red-and-white wall and an orange curtain. The lead man has distinctive long swept-back hair, orange clothing and garlands, which is a probable Swamiji (probable) appearance-based match, presented as a devotee-garlanded figure on a procession occasion.
