A bearded man with long dark hair sits sideways on a red-cushioned chair on a raised concrete platform, smiling and gazing to the left. He wears a saffron-orange cloth draped over one shoulder with a rudraksha-style brown mala across the chest, and his feet are bare. Behind him rises a wooded hill with rocky outcrops under a pale sky, and a row of rust-coloured shuttered containers stands to the right. A woven colourful mat lies at the base of the platform. Probable Swamiji by appearance cues of long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, seated as an honoured guest at the Thiruvannamalai site.
