A bearded man with long swept-back hair wrapped in a rust-red turban decorated with a jewelled ornament waves his right hand while smiling at an audience. He wears a rust-red shawl over his bare upper body, multiple strands of beaded rudraksha malas and gold necklaces, and a leopard-print cloth at his waist. He holds a tall gold staff topped with an ornament in his other hand, and a gold animal figure with curved horns is at lower left. Seated or standing devotees fill the background in front of a blurred colourful stained-glass window. Swamiji (probable) is the central figure seated on a ceremonial throne, with his distinctive hair, turban, malas and saffron-red clothing.
