A photograph of a long-haired man seated on a white-covered rattan sofa in a plain room with barred windows. He wears an orange saffron-coloured wrap over a red sleeveless top and is draped with a garland of white flowers, red roses and green leaves. He sits barefoot on a pink mat and smiles, looking to the side. A small framed picture rests on the sofa beside him. The garland, orange wrap and long hair suggest a person in person, though the appearance is uncertain.
