A gilded ceremonial palanquin procession carries a seated figure with a gold crown and a red-and-white flower garland, waving with raised right hand and smiling. He wears a deep maroon-red garment with orange trim on a red-cushioned throne. Overhead hang purple, yellow and orange flower garlands, green, orange, turquoise and pink tassels, and brass bells. A standing attendant on the left in orange-gold cloth holds a silver trident, with rudraksha beads visible on his chest. A partly visible second attendant sits behind the throne. The palanquin's carved gold frame and marigold garlands line the foreground.
