A smiling man with eyes closed sits against an ornate gold repoussé backdrop. He wears an orange-red turban with a small dark bindi on the forehead, an orange-red shawl draped over the shoulders, and a long black rudraksha mala hanging to the chest. The red and gold background and his calm, meditative expression suggest a ritual or satsang setting. Swamiji (probable) is identified by the long hair, saffron turban and shawl, and rudraksha mala, seated as the central figure in a satsang setting.
