A photograph of a shaved-headed man standing barefoot on a dark mat, arms crossed over his chest with hands on opposite shoulders, eyes lowered. He wears a sleeveless maroon-red top, a beaded brown rudraksha-style mala necklace, and loose beige drawstring-cuffed trousers, with a red bindi on his forehead. Behind him hangs deep red velvet drapery beside a carved wooden pillar and pale wall. He appears to be a yoga or meditation practitioner; no clear a person cues such as long hair, crown or ornate saffron attire are visible, so identity is uncertain.
