A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead sits with eyes closed and palms pressed together in anjali mudra. He wears a sleeveless saffron-orange garment and a garland of red and white roses with green leaves draped over his shoulders. A microphone on a stand is at left, a carved stone deity relief stands behind him, and a gilded ornate golden chair with round finials frames the right side. The setting appears to be an outdoor temple or ashram gathering. The visible cues of long hair, saffron clothing and a rose garland are consistent with the Swamiji (probable) label from the page, but the face is not used for identification.
