A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi sits cross-legged on a red-draped stage in front of an ornate gold throne-back arch. He wears a tiger-striped saffron-and-gold garment over a bare upper torso, with layered rudraksha and white bead malas around his neck and gold bangles on his wrists. A red lacquered tray with fruit and small brass items sits to his left, and a dark staff leans beside it. Behind him, a gilded deity murti with raised hands stands in the background. Swamiji (probable) is seated centrally, with his distinctive long hair, saffron and tiger-print clothing, and rudraksha malas as cues.
