A street scene at a market arcade beneath a red banner with white Hindi lettering and a saffron-coloured Sanskrit invocation above. Three men in saffron and orange robes walk left to right; the central figure, with long swept-back hair and a dark shawl over his shoulder, carries nothing in hand, while the man at right wears an orange robe and a beaded necklace. Behind them a person in white clothing carries a speaker box, and a child in white walks nearby. Stalls with ice cream signage, plastic chairs and produce crates line the arcade.
