A man with swept-back black hair, white ash on his forehead and arms, and a red dot at the brow stands with palms pressed together in namaste near a golden ornate throne backrest. He wears an orange-red shawl over bare shoulders, multiple strands of rudraksha mala beads and a gold ceremonial pendant at the neck. His eyes are closed in devotion. Blurred figures in white clothing appear at the lower left, and a gold-framed seat and a doorway with a framed picture are in the background. Swamiji (probable): the orange shawl, rudraksha malas, gold pendant and swept-back hair are the qualifying cues for the figure in the foreground.
