A man with long dreadlocked hair wound high on his head, studded with rudraksha beads, sits with eyes closed and a faint smile before an ornate silver-embossed backdrop. He wears a white tilak across his forehead with a red mark at the centre, a saffron-orange shawl over bare shoulders, and a gold chain. Two red rose and yellow marigold garlands drape over his shoulders, and he holds a garland in his hands. The setting suggests a devotional or satsang event.
