A photograph of a man in profile on the right, with long, swept-back reddish-brown hair and a red tilak on his forehead, wearing an orange-saffron garment draped over his shoulders. He smiles and looks to the left. Beside him stands a grey stone sculpture of a figure with hands joined in anjali mudra, wearing a crown-like headdress and ornaments, sheltered by a multi-hooded serpent hood, set against a backdrop of palm fronds and green foliage. A hand holding a small phone appears at the lower right edge. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair and saffron-orange clothing with a visible tilak mark the figure as a candidate, and he is physically present in the scene.
