A procession by a river in lush green forest. A central figure in an orange-red turban, saffron-orange garments, a white flower garland and a gold necklace stands on a silver-toned palanquin-like platform, holding a long ceremonial staff. Around him, men in white dhotis with gold borders and red-orange shawls hold up ornate red, orange and gold umbrellas with fringed edges. Devotees in white and orange shawls sit in the foreground at the water's edge, and a woman in orange stands at the left. The central figure matches the page's Swamiji reference through a turban, saffron clothing, garland and ornaments, so this is a probable appearance-based identification.
