Outdoor procession descending a dark stone staircase in front of a white building with glass doors. A figure in a white kurta with a red garland leads, while a large multicoloured umbrella with a gold top is carried above a central figure in an orange robe. Several people in white clothes with red garlands follow, and a few in maroon and orange robes walk nearby. Two decorative red-and-gold banners hang from the upper balcony, and a yellow flag is planted in the foreground. Vendors selling bundled goods stand on the sidewalk and a tour bus marked PARIWISATA is parked at right. The white-robed figure at the centre of the umbrella is possibly a person, but the appearance is uncertain.
