A man with long swept-back dark hair, a red bindi and an orange saffron garment sits on a red upholstered throne-style seat in front of an ornate gold repoussé backrest. He wears a long dark rudraksha mala around his neck and holds white papers in one hand while the other hand rests near the mala. A microphone on a stand is visible at right. The gold arch and red cushions frame him. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron garment and rudraksha mala are the qualifying cues for the Swamiji candidate reading from notes during a talk. A printed copyright line runs vertically at the right edge.
