A smiling man in orange-saffron robes with a gold-bordered shawl stands in profile with his palms pressed together in namaste. He wears a rudraksha mala headband, a red tilak on his forehead, a small gold earring and a heavy ornate gold necklace, and rudraksha bracelets on his wrists. An orange-painted wall and a wooden door form the background, with another person in orange partly visible at the left edge. Appearance-based cues of a long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace suggest a probable Swamiji (probable) greeting visitors at the Kanjanoor temple visit.
