A street procession moves along a roadway lined with pink-walled buildings and a crowd of onlookers. At the centre, a red tractor decorated with orange and yellow garlands leads a float carrying a decorated deity or ornate canopy. Behind it, a red-and-gold ratha-style float with a tall red canopy and banners is pulled through the street. Many men in white dhotis and shirts walk alongside, while women in saris and children watch from the sidewalk. Overhead, a red and yellow decorated arch or banner structure spans the road, and rooftop spectators are visible at the right.
