Outdoor temple-style celebration on a red carpet under a decorated canopy of marigold and flower garlands, with a golden trident and staff at the top left. A figure with long dark hair wears a magenta and gold brocade shawl over an orange garment and is bent forward while a man in a white shirt and grey trousers bows and reaches toward them with hands pressed together. Behind them, sadhus in orange robes and an attendant in white dhoti with a gold-trimmed shawl and a gold necklace stand near a flower-decorated structure with a zebra-striped cloth. Bystanders in light shirts watch, and one holds a folded paper.
