Aimee Semple McPherson sits in a floral-lined chair that is hoisted off the ground in the near distance at center. She faces left. On the near side of her, men hold her up in the chair. Two lines of police officers face one another in the foreground at left and right. Between them, a cleared walkway stretches back through center and towards Mrs. McPherson. The crowd converges around Mrs. McPherson in the near distance. Buildings rise in the background at left.
