A seated man in an orange-saffron robe draped over his shoulders and body sits on a cream-upholstered chair in front of an ornate gold repoussé throne with scrolled floral and bird motifs. His eyes are closed, his right hand is raised palm-outward in a blessing gesture, and his left hand rests on the armrest. He has long dark hair and a red bindi on his forehead. A dark blue curtain backs the scene. Swamiji (probable) appearance-based label: long swept-back hair, saffron robe, and a gilded throne seat together suggest a seated sannyasi giving a blessing. No other people are visible.
