A man seated in meditation on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, eyes closed and smiling faintly. He wears a beige-brown turban with a red tilak on his forehead, a red-orange silk robe draped over one shoulder, and a long necklace of gold beads. Gold bangles are on his upper arm and wrist, and his bare feet rest on a red cushion. Behind him an orange backdrop shows a printed portrait in ornate red-and-gold clothing and partial Telugu-script lettering. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues are a turban, a gold bead necklace and saffron-red clothing, with the throne and meditation posture as context.
