A barefoot procession moves along a blue-and-white patterned runner laid over dirt under shady trees. In front, a man in a red-brown dhoti with a golden-yellow shawl wears a long gold necklace and gold armlets; his hands are open at his sides. Behind him, a girl in a red sari and a boy in saffron robes with rudraksha malas walk with palms pressed together in greeting. Other participants in red and orange robes follow, and a horn player in orange appears at the right edge. The setting is a shaded garden path beside a red brick wall.
