A tall copper flagstaff rises steeply against a pale blue sky, its top crowned with a decorated finial and a red-orange tassel. A man in orange robes and white-and-red flower garlands stands at the base, pulling an orange rope that runs up the pole, as he hoists the flag. Small orange petals or flower fragments drift through the air around the pole. Tall palm fronds appear at the right edge, and the base of the pole is decorated with marigold-style garlands.
