A man seated before an ornate gold carved throne-back, speaking and gesturing with his right hand raised. He wears a rust-red robe, an orange-saffron shawl over the shoulders, and a long ceremonial gold bead necklace with a rudraksha-style mala. He has long swept-back dark hair, white vertical tilak with a red kumkum dot, glasses and small gold earrings. Swamiji (probable): the appearance and presentation cues (long hair, saffron shawl, gold beads, gold throne setting) are consistent with the page's attribution. Warm lamplight and a blue and yellow painted panel appear at the left edge.
