A seated man in a rust-red turban and rust-red robe, with a dark beaded mala draped over his shoulders, smiles at the camera on a patterned leopard-print seat in front of a gold-coloured backdrop. Behind him stand several men in white shirts and orange-saffron shawls with red and yellow borders; the man at right holds a small orange fruit and a red tilak is visible on his forehead. Another man at the back raises a mobile phone. A red curtain frames the room. The seated man has distinctive turban, robe and mala cues, so he is a probable Swamiji depiction in person; the standing men are devotees.
