A man seated cross-legged on a red velvet throne with an ornate gold arched backrest, speaking into a microphone on a boom stand. He wears a light blue draped garment over a bare shoulder, a heavy gold bead necklace with a central pendant, and a small red bindi on his forehead. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders, and his hands are clasped in his lap. The gold-leaf throne and blue drapery dominate the frame. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), given long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and draped blue clothing, seated in a discourse setting.
