A seated man in a maroon turban with a crescent-shaped ornament and a green feather at the front, wearing a maroon shawl draped over a bare shoulder, a long gold necklace of beads with a large gold pendant, a gold bracelet on the upper arm, gold earrings, and a red-brown tilak on the forehead. He sits in front of a large ornate gold lotus-petal backrest on a red cushion and smiles toward a microphone on a stand. Background shows gold-patterned draped fabric with repeated gold figures. Swamiji (probable): the turban, ornate gold jewellery, and maroon ceremonial dress match a presentation consistent with a discourse setting; he is shown as a seated speaker.
