Night procession scene with warm, glowing illuminated lights in the background. A bearded man in a dark maroon robe wears a long gold ceremonial necklace with a large gold pendant and a garland of pink and white flowers, and holds an ornate silver staff topped with a silver emblem in one hand. Other men beside him, with white forehead markings and beaded necklaces, carry silver staffs topped with a rooster-shaped emblem. Appearance-based candidate for a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so identity is uncertain; he is shown as a procession participant carrying a silver staff.
