A dusty dirt-road procession moves between trees under a hazy sky. In the left foreground a man with long dark hair and a flowing orange saffron wrap walks ahead of the group; a second orange-clad figure appears at right. Musicians in white dhotis and shirts play drums and a long wind instrument, including a man at centre right blowing a horn-like pipe. Other men and women in white, one in a red-and-white checked garment, follow behind. The long orange-clad figure at left has distinctive long hair and orange wrap, which is a person cue, but the figure is at a distance and the appearance is uncertain.
