Outdoor procession photo. A long-haired man in a cream and gold-bordered garment wears a heavy red and white flower garland over multiple gold bead necklaces, with a gold sash over one shoulder and a sandalwood tilak with red bindi on his forehead, looking downward as he walks. Behind him, people in orange and blue traditional clothing stand in a crowd under trees, with a golden trident-like finial visible above. The man appears to be a person by appearance, given the swept long hair, ornate gold necklaces and garland cues.
