A festival procession moves along a wide paved path under a bright hazy sky, with bare trees and low buildings behind. Many people in saffron-orange robes walk in a long line, including children and adults. At the centre, a decorated ratha-style float with orange and gold elements is pulled forward. Near the front, a young woman with white marks on her face and bare shoulders holds a pair of cymbals. To the right, a golden open canopy stands beside stacked timber. A man in a light tunic and a man in white walk among the marchers, and a woman in a dark red sari appears on the left. Roughly fifty people are visible.
