Close photo of a man with short black hair and a moustache, seated and wearing a cream embroidered kurta with gold-toned brocade collar and a black beaded rudraksha-style mala. A thick garland of red petals with gold ribbon-rose accents drapes over his shoulders, and he has a red tilak on his forehead and yellow turmeric paste on his cheek. Behind him are warm orange and green fabric hangings. No other clearly visible person is in focus. The photo is watermarked with an archive credit, which is not transcribed.
