A bearded man in a saffron-orange robe and wrap stands in front of an ornate golden shrine decorated with jewelled and gilded arches. He wears a small gold crown, a red tilak on his forehead, multiple strands of beaded malas and a large gold ceremonial pendant on his chest, with a gold belt at his waist. His right hand is raised in greeting. To his left stands a silver trident, and behind him are golden figures and ornamental kalasha-like finials. The lighting is warm and hazy. Swamiji (probable): the saffron clothing, crown, gold necklaces and malas match the distinctive presentation cues. The centre of the frame is a single person, with no other people clearly visible.
