A tall white flagpole with a golden finial rises against a clear blue sky, flying a small saffron-orange pennant. Dense green trees and a palm frond sit at the lower left and right, and a large dark boulder rests at the base. Small figures in white clothing are partly visible behind the rock at the bottom edge, a few people in white at a distance. The scene suggests an outdoor ceremonial site with a flagpole raised for a festival day.
