A man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a carved lion-head armrest, draped in deep red velvet cushions over a tiger-skin rug. He wears a red bindi, gold hoop earring, a long rudraksha mala and a heavy gold beaded necklace, with gold bangles on his arms and wrists. He smiles and gestures with one hand toward a fan-like object held by an attendant behind him, in front of a pale blue backdrop with pink and green lotus-topped pillars. Cues consistent with Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala, gold necklace and a throne setting. He appears to be giving a discourse; the scene is a photograph of one seated person.
