A seated man with long dark hair wears an orange-saffron shawl over orange robes and a long rudraksha mala. He sits on a red and gold tiger-striped cushioned throne in front of an ornate gilded backrest, with red and yellow flower garlands at the edges. His hands are folded in his lap and his eyes are lowered. Visible cues include the swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads, so he is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in darshan-style pose on a peetha throne. The photo has a copyright overlay that is not described.
