A seated man with a black turban-style headwrap topped by a crescent ornament and a silver arc, white vertical tilak with a red bindi, and a thick moustache, raises one hand in a gesture while the other hand rests near his waist. He is bare-chested and wears layered gold necklaces, a large gold pendant, rudraksha bracelets and armlets, and dark maroon-brown cloth. He sits before an ornate silver-embossed backrest with a repoussé face motif, and a pink-green rocky hill rises behind him under a blue sky, with a small bird-like logo in the upper left. The composition resembles a staged portrait with a hill backdrop. Swamiji (probable): the bare-chested figure wears rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold necklaces and an ornate turban, and sits on a throne-like seat with the hill as backdrop, matching the page's claim.
