Outdoor ritual scene beside a temple entrance with a banner reading Dhy and a banana plant behind. A bare-chested man in an orange cloth and an orange turban stands at the centre-right, holding a brass vessel and pouring liquid over a bed of grey ash scattered with red and pink flower petals. Other men in white dhotis and orange shawls stand behind him, some with hands folded in prayer. A woman in a white sari holds a ritual item to the left. Striped orange and red canopy fringe hangs overhead, with a colourful umbrella at right. The orange-robed man with the turban has long hair and bare shoulders, a partial appearance cue, but the image is not clear enough to confirm his identity.

Drummers with red and green drums stand at the upper right, and several drum sticks are visible. Behind them, an ornate decorated ratha or chariot with red, yellow and blue garlands and a red canopy is in view, with palm trees along the left.
