Solution 1:

SVG object are not always drawn later. It depends on the way they are embbed in the HTML page. If you want an instant drawing of the SVG and a fallback without javascript, you have to use either :

The CSS background technique

The SVG will be referenced in the CSS. Because CSS is loaded in the head section, it will draw the SVG as it appears in the HTML code.

.my-element {
    background-image: url(fallback.png);
    background-image: 
    linear-gradient(transparent, transparent),
    url(image.svg);
}

More details on how to use this technique

The inline SVG with foreignObject technique

Because it's inline, the SVG will be drawn as it appears in the HTML code.

<svg><switch><g>
           /* Here the SVG code */
        </g><foreignObject>
            /* Here the image fallback */
        </foreignObject></switch></svg>

More details on how to use this technique

All the others SVG inclusion techniques, will result in a delay in the displaying of the SVG.
