A photograph of a shaved-headed man with closed eyes and a slight smile, seated against an orange wall with a dark shelf and brass plate above. He wears an orange-saffron shawl over a bare shoulder, a dark red-brown rudraksha mala around his neck, a white horizontal tilak across his forehead and a red dot at the centre. Only his head and upper body are visible, with the top of another person's head at the lower left edge. The scene suggests a devotional moment; the figure is a priest or devotee in saffron dress.
