A seated man in rust-orange silk draped over one shoulder with a gold-bordered dhoti, wearing a long gold-beaded garland and gold beaded armlets, sits cross-legged on a red and black tiger-striped cushioned seat with a gold-framed edge. He has a red tilak on his forehead, a hair bun and gold earrings, and smiles while turning his head to the side. Behind him is a large golden carved decorative panel. Swamiji (probable): the visible cues are the swept-back hair bun, ornate gold necklace and beaded armlets, and the throne-style seat, with a rust-orange garment and tilak.
