A smiling man with a full black beard sits on a gold bull-shaped mount (nandi-like statue) in a procession setting. He wears a rust-orange turban with a jeweled ornament, a rust-orange shawl, layered rudraksha malas and a heavy gold garland, a gold trishul pendant, and a leopard-print waist cloth. He holds a small wooden tray or book in one hand and raises the other hand with a gold object between the fingers. A tall gold staff topped with a trident stands at right, and a blurred crowd fills the background. Swamiji (probable) with distinctive saffron turban, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold garland.
