Two parasols shade a group of devotees: on the left, a woman in white kurta and pants with dark sunglasses sits on a chair, and a seated woman in white with a red sash rubs her forehead. Standing beside them, a woman in a white top with a red waist sash and a woman in an orange-brown sari with a dark shawl face each other in conversation. At right, a curly-haired man in a white shirt and white pants stands with a red-and-orange sash, gesturing, while two men in red and white shirts stand at the edge of the frame. No identifiable a person is visible.
