A seated man in an orange saffron robe with a gold border raises his right hand in a blessing gesture while smiling. He wears a multi-strand rudraksha mala with a large ornate pendant and a pearl-and-gold necklace, and a red bindi marks his forehead. He sits on a gold-upholstered throne with an intricately carved gilded backdrop; an orange cloth drapes the armrest. Swamiji (probable): the orange robe, long swept-back dark hair, rudraksha mala and ornate pendant match the cues for Swamiji. A partially visible person's head appears in the lower right foreground.
