A smiling man rides on a decorated golden procession chariot, wearing an ornate gold crown with a green and red fabric trim, a rudraksha-style gold bead necklace layered over an orange saffron garment, and red and yellow flower garlands. Behind him stand tall decorative poles with blue, green and red tassels and yellow and pink flower strings. A red bindi marks his forehead. Swamiji (probable) appears in this frame: the swept-back long hair, the saffron clothing and the ceremonial gold necklace are consistent with the page's reference to a procession appearance. He is the only person visible.
