Close photo of a smiling man in a tan turban with gold sequin trim and a purple-and-gold jewelled brooch, a red bindi on his forehead. He wears a red robe with a cream shawl and multiple strands of rudraksha malas with gold bead accents, plus rudraksha bracelets. He raises one hand in blessing toward the viewer while the other hand is partly visible, and a gold ornate throne-like backdrop stands behind him. Appearance cues (turban, long hair, saffron/red robes, ornate malas) fit a candidate a person, though the face is not used for identification.
