A man seated cross-legged on an ornate silver throne with carved lion armrests and a large repoussé backrest on a stage. He wears a saffron-orange robe with a matching shawl, a long rudraksha mala around his neck, and a horizontal white tilak with a red mark on his forehead. His long hair falls over his shoulders, and he holds his hands at his chest in a gesture of speech. A microphone stands beside him, a silver trident and a wooden-handled ceremonial staff rise at the left, and carved temple-pillar imagery fills the backdrop. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), matching the long hair, saffron robe and rudraksha cues, seated on a throne while giving a discourse.
