Outdoor procession scene under a decorated canopy hung with marigold garlands, green and red tassels, and golden bells. A smiling man in a red-orange turban and rust-coloured wrap sits centrally, wearing layered gold necklaces, rudraksha malas, a gold waist ornament and gold bangles, holding pink flower petals. Beside him a man in white with an orange-edged cloth stands at left, and a man in a golden-yellow shawl stands at right. Golden finials frame the canopy pole. a person candidate by appearance is ambiguous: the seated figure has ornate adornments and a turban, but the page does not confirm his presence, so identity is uncertain.
