A smiling man in a deep red turban and red-and-white flower garlands rides on a festival chariot, raising both hands in greeting. He wears a gold necklace, heavy gold bangles and a rudraksha-style bead mala across his chest, with a vermilion bindi on his forehead. Behind him, a tall ornate chariot structure is decorated with white and pink flower garlands, gold-tone finials and a golden yak-tail style fan. Blurred figures in the foreground and at the edges suggest a procession crowd at dusk.
