A man seated in a large cream upholstered armchair with dark carved wooden trim on a stage before a dark blue curtain. A green banner reading "Yoga Sutras" in gold lettering hangs above. He wears a white turban, a cream wrap, a saffron-coloured cloth and a long orange-and-gold bead necklace, and holds his palms together in greeting. A small table holds a water bottle and a vase of red and white flowers, a microphone stand stands to the right, and a patterned rug lies at his feet with a cream footstool. The scene appears to be a discourse session. The seated man's appearance is uncertain, so he is described by role only.
