A smiling man seated in a dark wooden armchair on a stage in front of a carved, painted backdrop with blue panels and gold yellow motifs. He wears a rust-orange and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl, a long dense rudraksha mala draped across the chest, green beaded and gold necklaces, and a crown-like wreath of pink and white orchids over long dark hair. A red bindi marks his forehead, and he holds a small object in one hand. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, orchid crown, saffron-orange clothing and rudraksha malas. A water bottle and a towel rest on the chair arm.
