A standing man in a rust-orange turban with a red bindi and a rust-orange dhoti and shawl bordered in gold zari. He wears a dark rudraksha mala with a small white pendant and raises one hand in a blessing gesture while the other rests at his side. He stands barefoot before a large banyan tree whose pale, twisting aerial roots are dotted with red and yellow marks. The shawl and dhoti are the saffron-tinted ascetic attire associated with sannyasi dress, and his long dark hair falls past the turban. The photo appears to be a film print with faded colours. The page does not confirm who this is, and the appearance cues are not distinctive enough to name him.
