Behind him is a large backdrop of marigold and rose garlands in red, yellow, purple and white. Two brass oil lamps hang at the top corners. He wears a pink and white flower garland, a multi-strand gold and beaded necklace, a rudraksha-style bead mala, gold bangles, and a dark patterned top with an orange-brown lower wrap. His hands are raised in a greeting, palms pressed together, and he smiles with a sacred ash mark and red dot on his forehead. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, ornate gold jewellery and rudraksha beads, seated in the central position of honour. Only one person is visible.
