Outdoor procession scene under overcast sky with misty hills behind a red-and-orange tarpaulin shed. Central figure wearing a deep maroon turban and maroon-red cloth draped over the body, with a broad smile and right hand raised in a wave. He wears layered gold and beaded necklaces, a large gold pendant, gold bangles and armbands, and white markings on the forehead and arms. Behind him, a decorated vehicle shows white flower garlands, orange and purple tassels and a gold finial. Onlookers stand at left, including women in saris and a uniformed police officer, beside parked white cars. Yellow flower petals lie on the vehicle. The figure's appearance with turban, saffron-toned ornate clothing and rudraksha-style gold adornments matches a person, seated and waving during the procession.
