A seated man in a rust-red sanyasi robe sits on a tiger-striped seat beside a gilded bronze Nandi bull, his left hand resting on the bull's head. He wears a long gold necklace with a pendant, rudraksha beads, a dark beard and long swept-back hair, with a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him stands a gold deity murti with a trident-bearing figure and a gilded kirtimukha-style arch, beside golden lion-like carvings. Green plants, potted greenery, a small wooden stool with a coconut and a yellow fruit complete the scene. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala, ceremonial gold necklace and ochre robe match the page's attribution, so this is presented as a probable identification.
