A seated man in a rust-red turban and matching rust-orange robe sits on a plush maroon velvet throne-style chair in front of a gold-and-jewelled backdrop with pink and white floral garlands. He wears a heavy gold necklace, a pink-and-white flower garland over his shoulders, beaded red bracelets and a rudraksha-style mala, and raises his right hand in a mid-speech gesture while smiling. A red cup sits on a small table beside a gilded lion-head armrest. Swamiji (probable): long hair swept back under the turban, ornate gold necklaces and saffron clothing, seated in a discourse setting.
