A seated figure with long dark hair and white ash marks with a red dot on the forehead wears a loose orange saffron wrap over a sleeveless orange garment. A gold ceremonial necklace with bead-like elements hangs at the chest and a rudraksha-style mala drapes from the shoulder. The figure sits on a low wooden stool against a pale marble wall, bare-footed, hands resting on folded white cloth with purple trim across the lap. A printed photograph with a town scene hangs on the left edge of the frame. Swamiji (probable) appears in the orange robes, gold necklace and long hair.
