A studio portrait of a man against a dark mottled backdrop. He has long dark hair swept back, a white vertical tilak with a red bindi on his forehead, and wears an orange-saffron shawl draped over his shoulders. Multiple rudraksha beads hang in a mala around his neck. He smiles broadly, one hand raised near his face with fingers touching his temple, and his other arm folded across his body. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala are visible cues of a sannyasi presentation, appearing as a single in-person subject in a posed portrait.
