Outdoor procession scene at dusk. A man in a brown dhoti and sheath stands centrally wearing a large gold necklace, a heavy garland of yellow and red flowers, and a white tilak on his forehead, with hands folded in front of him. Before him a man in white clothes prostrates face-down on a woven mat, with a brass plate of fruit, flowers and a lamp beside him. Around them, women in orange saris stand with palms pressed together in namaskar, and men in orange cloth and white dhotis stand nearby, one holding a basket of flowers and another a paddy-straw umbrella. Red and pink lights glow at the upper right.
