Outdoor photo on a brick-paved courtyard beside a pink-topped yellow wall with palm trees behind. A man in the centre wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, bare-chested with a rudraksha mala, a light blue head covering and a long swept-back hair style, walking forward with a stern gaze; he appears to be a probable Swamiji with these cues, shown as in person. Beside and behind him, a man in white dhoti with a light blue head cloth carries a yellow cloth bag, and on the right a shaved-headed man in orange robes with a white tilak stands with hands joined in greeting, with another orange-robed man partly visible at far right wearing a face mask. Four people are visible in total.
