Outdoor festival procession on a crowded street. A central man wears a maroon turban, a maroon robe and heavy gold necklaces with a large gold pendant, with red and white floral garlands draped over his shoulders, and is gesturing with one raised hand. Around him, a woman in a red sari with gold necklaces, a man in orange saffron robes with rudraksha malas, and a figure in white with gold-trimmed shawl walk among devotees. Red and orange flags, a green umbrella and a banner fill the background, and a photographer raises a camera at right. Appearance cues for the central figure are a maroon turban, ornate gold ornaments and garlands; the identity is uncertain from the image alone.
