A seated man in an orange-saffron turban and matching orange-and-gold robe sits behind a wooden book stand, a large open book resting on it. He wears a long gold ceremonial necklace with beads and a red bindi on his forehead, and gestures with his right hand toward the open pages. Behind him a banner shows the title Bhagavad Gita (The Song of God) above a painted battle scene with chariots and horses. Green potted plants and a brass lamp stand to the right, and a gold-and-cream cushioned seat is at left. The appearance-based label is a person, a discourse speaker reading from the Bhagavad Gita; the photo shows the speaker giving a talk.
