A procession walks along a dirt road before a hill and tree line at a Tiruvannamalai-area setting. In the foreground, drummers in white dhotis and shirts play a drum and a wind instrument, one with a shoulder bag. Behind them, several robed figures in saffron and orange walk in procession; one woman in red-orange garments wears a beaded necklace, another holds a white flower garland, and an older man in white with a shawl stands at the rear. A red-and-white open shed and rows of small pots are visible on the left, with a white vehicle parked nearby.
