A photo of a smiling man with long dark hair and a yellow-and-red forehead mark, standing on a raised platform in front of an ornate gold arched backdrop. He wears a saffron-orange draped garment with gold-edged borders, multiple strands of beads and rudraksha-style malas, a wide red-brown beaded belt with bells, and beaded armlets. He holds a silver trident in his left hand, his right hand resting on his hip, with a tiger-striped rug beneath his feet. The ornamented setting and costume suggest a ceremonial stage presentation.
