A standing man in an orange-red dhoti-style wrap and matching shawl holds a tall gold trident in his right hand. He wears a black head wrap or turban with a crown-like ornament, a white and red vertical tilak with a red bindu on the forehead, rudraksha bracelets on both arms, a rudraksha mala draped across the chest and a gold pendant necklace. Behind him a large backdrop shows many repeated painted faces of a Shiva-like deity in red, white and blue tones. Swamiji (probable): the figure matches the orange-red robes, trident, turban and rudraksha cues, and the page names him as present, but the image is a standing portrait-like figure against a backdrop with no direct event context.
