A close photograph of a smiling man with eyes closed, wearing a large white turban with a gold jewelled brooch at the front and a red tilak on his forehead. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders and he wears a white embroidered garment. Behind him are ornate gold-framed carved chairs or a throne with red upholstery, decorative metal figurines and a colourful embroidered cloth with tassels. The appearance is consistent with a person in a ceremonial turban and white attire, shown in an in-person setting, though identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
