Two men sit side by side on wooden-armed chairs in front of a pale pink wall with a framed picture above. The man on the left wears a white head covering, a white kurta and a cream shawl draped over his shoulders, with a small red tilak on his forehead. The man on the right, wearing a bright orange turban and orange robes, a rudraksha-style gold necklace and a red mark on his forehead, is smiling broadly with long dark hair falling past his shoulders. The two clasp hands between them. Swamiji (probable) is the man on the right, identified by the orange turban and robes, long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and ceremonial bearing; the man on the left is a devotee in white.
