A photograph taken on a dark stage with haze and blue-white side lighting. A standing man in a rust-orange draped garment and orange-red body wrap holds a silver trident in his right hand, its tall shaft wrapped with a leopard-print cloth, and rests his left hand on a leopard-print covered pedestal. He wears a leopard-print headband with a small crescent ornament, multiple red-brown rudraksha malas across his chest, a gold-toned belt, and bangles on both arms. The pedestal holds a folded striped cloth. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair and distinctive orange garments and rudraksha malas indicate a Swamiji depiction, presented as a stage figure.
