A close side-portrait of a man with long black hair wound high into a turban-like coil, a red-brown bindi on his forehead and white ash markings on his brow. He wears gold earrings and a thick orange-brown beaded rudraksha-style mala draped over bare shoulders, with a saffron-and-maroon cloth. He looks back over his shoulder against a red wall, while a blurred white electric fan spins in the foreground. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron ceremonial clothing and rudraksha mala are visible cues.
