A man in the centre wears a golden crown-like headband, rudraksha-style beaded and gold necklaces and an orange-saffron shawl over a dhoti, walking forward with a calm expression. Flanking him are men in orange-saffron robes with gold chains and a shaved-headed man in white with beaded necklaces holding an orange cloth, and a man in white dhoti at left carrying an orange object. Behind them women in white and teal saris and other devotees walk through the colonnade. The scene suggests a procession in a temple.
