A photograph of a man seated in front of a large floral backdrop of marigolds and white, red and purple blooms arranged in a semicircular halo. He wears a yellow turban and yellow shawl, a red tilak on his forehead, long hair falling behind his shoulder, and heavy ceremonial gold beaded necklaces. A jewelled ornament with silver-toned stonework is visible at the lower left. Swamiji (probable): the candidate wears saffron-yellow ornate clothing, a turban, long swept-back hair and ceremonial gold necklaces, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji at this event. He is the only physical person visible.
