The portrait dominates the right side of the frame, depicting a regal woman in an elaborate white, red, and gold gown with a scepter and crown, against a dark background. The individuals are positioned in the bottom-left to mid-left of the frame. One person, a man with curly dark hair, has his arm around another, slightly shorter individual with dark curly hair. Another woman with long blonde hair stands to their right. A younger person in a green t-shirt stands further right.

A portion of the text 'WHERE THE ROYAL MILE ENDS YOUR ROYAL ADVENTURE BEGINS' from the previous scene is still visible as a translucent overlay on the left side of the frame, slowly receding or dissolving.

The right side of the screen shows a wide exterior shot of the main courtyard of the palace seen previously, featuring a large, ornate stone fountain in the center surrounded by a hexagonal shrubbery garden. People are sparsely scattered across the courtyard, walking. The palace facade is visible in the background with its grey stone, numerous windows, and turrets under an overcast sky. A small portion of text, likely 'FOLLOW THE FOOTSTEPS OF ROYALTY', is visible at the very bottom, partially obscured by a purple bar.
