Outdoor procession photograph in which a bearded man in a rust-orange turban with a gold ornament and a saffron-orange robe, wearing layered gold necklaces, a white and red flower garland and gold armbands, smiles broadly at the camera while walking forward. Behind him, men in white dhotis with orange shawls carry tall ceremonial staffs topped with gold finials and a trident, and women in yellow and green saris walk nearby along a path lined with greenery under a white canopy. A large red cloth-draped object is visible at the lower centre. The man has long hair and a ritual forehead mark and is presented as Swamiji (probable) based on his turban, saffron clothing, ornate gold necklaces and garland.
