A smiling man sits outdoors on a leopard-print cushion, turned to his left. He wears a saffron-orange shawl wrapped over his shoulders and a long necklace of gold beads, and he has white vertical tilak marks and a red dot on his forehead. His hair is swept back, and his hands rest near his chest. A red plastic pot with a plant and a sandy ground are behind him. The atmosphere is relaxed and conversational, with no visible crowd or ritual setup. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated with saffron clothing, gold beaded mala and swept-back hair.
