A smiling person with long, swept-back dark hair sits under a canopy with red, green, yellow and orange tassels on a festival chariot or palanquin decorated with white jasmine garlands and gold-capped pillars. The person wears a yellow-green silk garment, a red-and-white garland of flowers across the chest, a gold necklace with large round gold beads, a gold armlet shaped like a cobra, and a red bindi on the forehead. The background is an open pale sky with orange and marigold garlands at the right edge. The person's appearance, long hair, ornate gold jewellery and saffron-toned attire are consistent with Swamiji (probable), seated in a procession on a ceremonial ratha.
