Outdoor ritual site beside a freshly dug mound of reddish-brown earth in front of dense green trees. Two tall cylindrical poles stand at left and right, wrapped in painted cloth with red, green, yellow and blue bands, bird motifs, elephants and diamond patterns. Between them hangs a red and blue banner with elephant, bird and lotus-like motifs and triangular pennants, with small yellow-topped canopy umbrellas on poles beside it. A single standing person at right wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, long dark hair, and holds two round objects over the ground while water or liquid falls from them, as in a purification rite. A partially visible hand appears at the lower right edge. The scene looks like a temple foundation ceremony.
