A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair sits in front of a red velvet backdrop and ornate gold-patterned panel. He wears a deep red shawl with a gold border over bare shoulders, a rudraksha mala with large beads hanging to his chest, and a red bindi with white horizontal forehead markings. A gold ceremonial ornament is visible at the lower right of the shawl. Swamiji (probable) cues: long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala, saffron-red ceremonial clothing and a throne-like seat; he is the sole person and appears to be seated on a throne.
