A seated bare-chested man sits cross-legged on a leopard-print cushion before an ornate silver repoussé backdrop with gilded floral panels. He wears a tall black turban, a white forehead marking with a central dot, multiple strands of gold and rudraksha beads, rudraksha armlets with gold clasps, and a maroon dhoti. One hand rests on his thigh and the other on his knee. Swamiji (probable): the swept turban, heavy rudraksha and gold ornaments and ceremonial throne setting match the page's claim.
