Outdoor scene at a temple courtyard with smoke drifting through palm trees and a tall stone lamp column at left. Several men in white dhotis and shirts with yellow sashes or orange shawls bend low on the gravel, some holding small items, while scattered petals and debris cover the ground. A man in a saffron-orange robe with a wrap walks across the courtyard barefoot. Beside the path, a stone bull statue sits on a white plinth, and a few white-clad people stand near small roadside structures and a parked white vehicle. The scene looks like a ritual gathering with smoke and offerings.
