A man with long swept-back dark hair and a tilak on his forehead walks across a grassy, open plateau beside a wide pale lake under a cloudy sky with distant mountains. He wears an orange long-sleeved top with a gold-bordered orange shawl draped over one shoulder and orange dhoti-style trousers. He reaches toward a person at the left edge, whose yellow-sleeved arm holds a leopard-print scarf. The setting suggests a Kailash yatra pilgrimage stop. A probable Swamiji cue is the long hair with orange and gold ceremonial clothing, so the figure is described as Swamiji (probable), in person.
