A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold-patterned cushioned chair, resting one hand on the chair arm and the other raised to his mouth. He has long, dark, swept-back hair, a red bindi on his forehead, and wears a red silk shawl with gold stripes and a green border over his shoulders, with a long rudraksha mala hanging to his waist and orange-beaded bracelets on his wrists. Beside him stands a small vase of artificial white and orange flowers in front of a deep red velvet curtain. The setting suggests a formal seated discourse or darshan.
