Seated on an ornate gilded throne with elaborate repoussé floral and scrollwork carving, a smiling man with swept-back dark hair wears an orange-red shawl over bare shoulders, a long orange rudraksha-style bead mala and a heavy ceremonial gold necklace of large beads. He has a white tilak on his forehead with a red bindi, a small earring and a microphone clipped near his face, with his hands resting in his lap. Swamiji (probable) cues: swept-back hair, saffron-orange wrap, rudraksha mala and gold necklace, seated on a throne.
