Photograph of a bare-chested man in a tall black turban with a dark bindi-style mark on his forehead and white ash markings on his brow. He wears multiple strands of brown rudraksha beads around his neck and a maroon-red cloth draped over his shoulder and torso. Behind him is an ornate silver-toned decorative panel with floral relief patterns, and the background is dark brown with warm orange light flares on the right. The man looks off to the side with a slight smile. Appearance-based a person cues: tall turban, rudraksha malas and maroon wrap; he appears to be a sannyasi in ritual dress.
