A seated man in saffron-orange robes raises his right hand in a blessing gesture while smiling. He wears a long gold-bead ceremonial necklace with a gold pendant, gold earrings, a red bindi and white forehead markings. Behind him is an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork on red cushions, with a blue backdrop and floral arrangement at the right edge. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back dark hair, saffron-orange ornate clothing and ceremonial gold necklace, seated on a gold throne; the man is a teacher giving a blessing.
