A seated man with long dark hair and a white vertical tilak with a red dot on his forehead sits on a red and black tiger-striped cushioned throne with gold-patterned backing. He wears an orange-brown robe with gold borders and a gold waistband, and a long rudraksha mala hangs across his chest and waist. His eyes are closed and his palms are pressed together in namaskar. Behind him stands a tall brass oil lamp against a deep red curtain. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and saffron-orange clothing with gold trim, seated in a ceremonial position as a teacher.
