A seated man with closed eyes presses his palms together in anjali mudra before a microphone on a stand. He wears a tall dark turban-style hairdo, a red bindi, and large gold hoop earrings. Multiple rudraksha mala strands hang over his chest with gold-toned ornaments, and he wears gold armlets and bangles with red thread. A pink cushion sits behind him. The backdrop shows large carved golden figures with many arms against a red wall. The figure has distinctive rudraksha malas, a turban-style hairdo and ornate gold adornments, but the appearance is uncertain so no firm identification is made; he is described as a seated devotee leading a discourse.
