A smiling man in a red-orange turban and matching saffron-orange robe stands in a festive procession. He wears a dense necklace of pink and red flower garlands over gold ornamental jewellery, gold armlets and bangles, and a red kumkum dot with white vibhuti on his forehead. Behind him, a man in white with gold border and another in a red and gold headdress stand near ornate golden and red ceremonial umbrellas and a tassel-decorated golden canopy with white flower strands. The black background suggests night. Swamiji (probable): the orange turban, saffron robe, flower garlands and gold jewellery are the appearance cues for the central figure.
