A seated man in an orange saffron shawl with a gold brocade border sits before an ornate gold repoussé backdrop. He wears a heavy multi-strand gold necklace with ornate bead spacers and a central gold pendant, a white pearl mala with a rudraksha bead, a rudraksha band on his upper arm, and a red bindi with white tilak on his forehead. His hands rest folded in his lap. Swamiji (probable) is identified by the long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces, saffron clothing and rudraksha cues associated with the presiding teacher of the event.
