A smiling man with a long beard and swept-back dark hair sits before an ornate gold repoussé backdrop, wearing a rust-brown robe, a thick gold necklace with a pendant, rudraksha malas, and a garland of white jasmine, orange marigolds, pink roses and green leaves. He has a white tripundra and a red bindi on his forehead. In the left foreground, a man in a light grey-white shirt bends forward toward him, seen from behind. The main figure appears to be Swamiji (probable), with long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold ornaments as the qualifying cues; the setting suggests a seated ceremonial darshan.
