In the foreground, a man with long swept-back dark hair and a gold necklace of ornaments wears saffron-orange robes with a gold border and smiles while walking. Beside him, a bald man in orange robes with a rudraksha-style mala and gold beaded necklace walks forward. Behind them, many people in white dhotis and white shirts walk in procession, some with hands folded, and a woman in a teal sari stands at left. The ornate canopy above the palanquin has red, green and gold floral decoration, and tall festival poles with coloured streamers frame the scene.
