Several golden latticed domed pavilions and a tall golden canopy stand behind them under trees. Some men raise arms or hold wooden staffs. At front centre, a seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long pale hair and a white shawl sits cross-legged on a pale throne-like seat in a yoga-type posture, with a pink-clad figure near them. Hands are raised and some participants hold hands in prayer. Trees and blue sky frame the scene.
