Night procession outdoors on a stone-paved courtyard. A central man in rust-orange robes wears a long white and red flower garland and a thick brown rudraksha mala, with a red vermilion mark on his forehead and long dark hair. Behind him, a shaved-headed man bare-chested with a rudraksha mala and white ash markings on his arms and chest holds a tall wooden staff. At left, a young man in orange garments holds a red bag and a metal lamp, and a figure holds a green and silver decorated umbrella. A white car is parked in the background. The central figure has distinctive long hair, rudraksha and an orange robe, with a garland and ornamentation consistent with the page's reference to a ceremonial event, so the candidate is a person in the procession.
