A smiling man rides on a golden procession float, seated on a maroon velvet cushion edged with gold. He wears an ornate gold crown with a blue tassel behind it, a red bindi, long dark hair, an orange saffron wrap, a red flower garland, and a heavy gold necklace of beads. He holds a silver sword-like staff, and gold-bordered marigold and white flower decorations fill the foreground. A golden pillar with studs stands behind him against a blue sky with stage rigging. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues of long swept hair, saffron clothing, ornate crown and rudraksha-style gold necklace fit a procession-seated honoured guest.
