A blue banner with a similar emblem hangs at the left edge, with palm trees and low hills behind. Many onlookers stand close together, some in white and others in striped or checked shirts, while a car is partly visible on the right. No clearly identifiable a person is visible; the crowd is shown as a welcoming gathering of devotees.
