A procession in an outdoor courtyard under bright sun. At the centre, a bearded man in a maroon-brown dhoti and gold necklaces wears long garlands of yellow and pink flowers and walks between attendants. Above him an ornate golden parasol with red, green and multicoloured tassels is held aloft by a young sadhu in saffron-orange cloth. Other saffron-clad attendants with rudraksha malas walk alongside, one carrying a round gold ceremonial fan, and a man in a red turban and a woman with a crown-like headpiece are visible behind. Corrugated roofing, a concrete wall and palm trees frame the scene. Eleven people are visible.
