A seated man in lotus posture on a tiger-print cloth against a silver repoussé backrest, with large banyan tree trunks behind him. He wears a tall black turban, white vertical tilak on the forehead, a bare chest, layered gold necklaces and a long beaded mala with gold pendants, and a maroon dhoti. His hands rest in his lap and a wristband is visible. Swamiji (probable) based on the visible black turban, ornate gold necklaces and rudraksha-style mala, though appearance-based identification is uncertain.
