Outdoor procession scene seen from behind a figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban, with long dark hair flowing down the back and a thin wrap over one shoulder. The figure walks through a crowd toward a building with a pale balustraded staircase, where several school-age boys in white shirts and dark trousers gaze down from the landing. Men in white and a bare-chested man in an orange cloth stand nearby, and a tall pole with a red and gold canopy or decorated umbrella rises at left. Strong daylight and a palm tree in the background.
