Night procession photograph of a man standing on an ornate gilded palanquin under a colourful canopy hung with teal, pink, orange, purple and green tassels. He wears a jewelled golden crown, a rudraksha-style garland of red and pink flowers, a heavy gold necklace and bangles, and raises one hand while holding a silver trident. A bare-chested figure in saffron cloth with white markings stands at right beside the palanquin. Pink and white flower garlands drape the gilded frame. Swamiji (probable): the standing man has a crown, ceremonial gold necklaces and a garland, consistent with the page's identification, though the figure is partially shaded and the appearance is only moderately clear.
