Indoor photograph of a long-haired man in an orange saffron garment with a gold border, wearing a gold bead necklace, seated on a red patterned armchair with a white lace covering, one arm raised mid-gesture as he speaks. Two men in white shirts sit in the foreground, seen from behind and from the side. A framed picture hangs on the wall at right and a round dark lamp shade hangs from the ceiling.
