A smiling man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate silver palanquin or ratha decorated with yellow, red, and white flower garlands and a red-and-white garland around his neck. He wears an orange headcloth or turban with a small mark on his forehead and a beaded rudraksha-style mala. A tasselled umbrella with coloured tassels is visible above him, and a red cloth with floral patterns sits on the right. The scene suggests a procession.
