A seated man sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned back carved with floral scrollwork. He wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over his bare shoulders with a gold-edged border, a heavy gold bead necklace and a silver-white neck ornament, and red-beaded rudraksha-style bands on both upper arms. He has a white horizontal forehead marking with a red dot, long dark hair swept back, and a small gold earring. Both hands rest in his lap and his gaze is directed to the side. The background is pale and softly lit. Visible features are consistent with the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues: saffron clothing, rudraksha bands, ornate gold necklace and long hair, seated on a throne in the role of a teacher or honoured guest.
