A seated man in an orange saffron robe and a long dark rudraksha mala sits eyes closed in meditation on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion. Long dark hair falls to his shoulders. Fruit, apples and a plate of flowers sit on small wooden tables beside him. Behind him a pink and white painted wall shows a red curtain and a dark signboard listing donors who built the Ananda Sabha. The scene is a temple-type hall with a grey stone pillar. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron ornate clothing and rudraksha mala, seated on a throne.
