A smiling man in an orange turban with a red tilak on his forehead stands in front of a wooden arched door with ornate wrought-iron scrollwork. He wears a white shawl with an orange and red patterned border over orange-and-cream embroidered clothing and a dark rudraksha mala. To the left, an older man with a shaved head, a red forehead mark and an orange-bordered white shawl smiles. At the right edge, a partially visible man in a dark top turns toward the central figure. The man in the centre has long hair visible below the turban, and the appearance cues of orange turban, distinctive ornate clothing and rudraksha beads are consistent with Swamiji (probable) standing in person.
