A man with long dark hair and a blue kurta with a saffron-orange shawl sits in a wooden palanquin carried on poles by four men in jackets and sweaters, one wearing an orange shawl. Behind them are mules with pink and red saddle cloths, a man in a red jacket with a walking stick, and a person in an orange rain jacket. A man in a white raincoat and a grey hood sits on a mule near the front. Green foliage, rocks and a black tarpaulin frame the scene, and a white metal stand stands by the path.
