Outdoor scene at a temple-town event ground under a grey overcast sky. A man in a saffron-orange robe with an orange shawl stands at the centre, gesturing as he talks with a group. Around him, men in white dhotis and white shirts, one with an orange shawl and a red garland, and a grey-haired man in white stand beside a wooden fence line. A woman in a white sari with a dark border stands at the fence, and a woman in a red-orange top stands at left. Behind them rise a tall bamboo scaffold holding rows of stage lights, trees, and orange-clad figures in the distance. A wooden barrier runs along the path.
