A man in a maroon-brown turban with a jewelled ornament and a maroon robe stands outdoors among a crowd, holding a lit oil lamp in one hand and a silver bell in the other. He wears layered gold necklaces, a thick garland of pink and white flowers with red roses, and gold bangles. Behind him, devotees in orange and saffron clothing watch with hands folded, and a figure in red and gold is partly visible at the lower right. Green foliage and palm fronds frame the scene. Swamiji (probable): the turban, gold necklaces and floral garland match the page's Swamiji reference, performing an aarti with lamp and bell.
