A procession moves along a sandy path beneath a decorated canopy with red, green and patterned fabric. A drummer in a brown shirt and white dhoti beats a barrel drum at left, and a man at right plays a wind instrument. In the centre, a man in an orange robe wears a long white flower garland and walks among others dressed in white dhotis, some with yellow shawls. Several saffron-clad figures and white-clad devotees follow. A white wall with small windows stands at left, and a framed portrait banner hangs on a pole at right beside shrubs and trees.
