A man seated in front of an ornate gold repoussé backdrop, wearing an orange saffron shawl with a gold-bordered edge draped over his shoulders and chest. He wears a long ornate gold bead necklace with a gold Shivalinga-style pendant, a rudraksha and pearl mala, and a rudraksha-bead armband, with a red bindi on his forehead and sacred ash marks. His hands rest folded in his lap. The appearance and distinctive saffron clothing and ornate gold necklaces are consistent with a person, seated in a sannyasi role.
