A seated man in a saffron-red robe and a rudraksha mala sits on a silver-framed throne on a riverboat, under an ornate red-and-gold canopy with a silver trident-topped staff beside him. Behind him, a tiger-striped cushion lies on the boat deck, and a bridge spans the river in the background. Around him, a shaved-headed monk in orange-red robes with a forehead tilak, a man in a white shirt with a yellow forehead mark, and women in red and orange saris sit on the deck, while a crowd in white clothing stands on a boat behind. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears long hair, a rudraksha mala and ceremonial beads, seated in honour under the canopy, a river procession presence.
