Devotees stand waist-deep in water beside a raft-like float decorated with red and orange marigold garlands, orange flags on poles and a gilded seat. A man in orange-red robes and long hair stands on the float with a flower garland in hand, while another orange-clad figure at the front reaches toward the raft. Many people in white clothes surround the float, some raising their hands in worship. Behind them a white-and-red diagonally striped stepped wall rises from the water under a tree. The scene suggests a water procession or ritual bathing of a deity float.
