A man in rust-orange robes with a golden-yellow border sits cross-legged on a red zebra-striped cushioned throne in front of an ornate gold repoussé backrest. He raises both palms upward in a blessing gesture and smiles. He wears a long rudraksha mala with large beads, a white and red tilak on the forehead and a red thread on the wrist. Leopard-print cushions and an orange cloth lie beside him, and a silver trident is partly visible at the right edge. A watermarked archive photo credit appears in the top right, and the setting suggests a satsang or darshan.
