A procession on a dirt ground under an overcast sky, with palm trees and a tall flagpole flying an orange flag at right. At the centre, a man with long dark hair and a swept-back style wears an orange robe and sandals and walks beneath an ornate ceremonial parasol with a multicoloured canopy and tassels. Two more colourful parasols with orange fringes flank him. Around them, many people in saffron-orange robes walk in step, some holding the parasol poles, while others in white clothes stand to the right. A man in a white shirt walks at left. The scene reads as a ceremonial procession, with the central figure a person carried under the central parasol, appearing in person.

Behind them, grey stone deity sculptures sit on a red-and-white painted platform near rows of dark pillars and white posts.
