A smiling bearded man sits on an ornate gold throne carved with scrolling foliage and feathered patterns, draped in a leopard-print cushion. He wears a rust-red turban with a silver brooch and a red bindi, a red-orange cloth draped over his shoulder and torso, thick gold multi-bead necklace with a gold temple-shaped pendant, rudraksha-style red bracelets on both upper arms, and long dreadlocks. He holds a white ceramic teacup and saucer in his right hand. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated in person; the cues are the turban, red-orange ceremonial clothing, ceremonial gold necklace and long hair.
