A procession walks down a long white stone colonnade inside a temple complex, with carved pillars, lion-figure capitals and dark deity sculptures along the left. Orange marigold garlands hang between the pillars, and red, pink and green festoons decorate the ceiling. A group of about ten people walks along the central aisle: several in saffron-orange robes, others in white clothing, with a man in white holding a bag at the front right. One figure in a saffron robe with a long orange shawl walks near the front. The scene shows a temple festival procession with garlanded decoration.
