A photograph of a smiling man with long dark hair seated before an ornate gold repoussé throne back. He wears a saffron-yellow sleeveless wrap over an orange garment and has a red bindi on his forehead. He holds a silver-gold trident staff across his lap with both hands, eyes closed and laughing. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, bindi and a trident staff on a gilded throne, consistent with the page's claim he was at this event.
