A man with long, swept-back dark hair sits on an ornate gold throne with repoussé floral and scroll carvings and rounded bead borders, against a red cushion. He wears a saffron-orange sleeveless wrap over his shoulders and a long strand of dark brown rudraksha beads, with a red bindi on his forehead. His eyes are closed and he smiles while his palms are raised together in front of his chest, as if in blessing or teaching. Swamiji (probable): the saffron clothing, rudraksha mala, long hair and gold throne are the visible cues for the presumed teacher. Green foliage and a pale wall appear behind the throne.
