In the centre stands a man with swept-back dark hair wearing a long white and pink marigold garland, a rudraksha-style bead garland, a red-orange dhoti-style cloth and a leopard-print shawl over one shoulder. To the left, a bare-chested man in orange cloth with a garland holds a tall wooden staff raised overhead, and a man with a white headband stands nearby. Behind them, a line of people in orange and saffron robes stands in the dark, some holding staffs, with a torch visible at the far left edge. A man in white ritual clothes stands among them. The scene suggests a devotional procession at night, with a person figure in the centre based on the long hair, flower garland and distinctive shawl.2014-06-09February 07 20162016-02-07Night procession on a dirt path lit by a distant lamp. Five men walk in a line: a shaved-headed man in white dhoti and shirt with a rudraksha-style pendant at left; a central man in orange-saffron robes with gold-bordered shawl walking with hands folded; a man in orange robes with gold border behind him holding hands together; a man in white dhoti and shawl with gold border; and a shaved-headed man in orange robes carrying a tray with a small silver vessel, green leaves and white flowers. A man in a white shirt at right holds a lit lamp and a flower garland. Appearance-based identity of the central figure is uncertain, so he is described only by role as a devotee walking in the procession.2012-01-02
