A smiling man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi sits cross-legged on a cushioned golden throne with carved gold lion-head armrests, hands folded in his lap. He wears an orange saffron robe with gold trim, a white jasmine garland with red and green floral pieces, and a long beaded rudraksha-style mala necklace. A microphone on a flexible stand is angled toward him. Behind him stands an ornate gold repoussé throne backdrop against navy drapery. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and ceremonial throne match the presentation cues, and he is seated on the throne as a speaker in person.
