Night procession scene with a deity murti decorated with garlands and flower strings, seated on an ornate illuminated palanquin or ratha lit by warm lamps. Strings of white lights and hanging tassels frame the figure, with a canopy above. In the foreground, a dark silhouetted crowd watches, and one standing person in light clothing is near the palanquin. A single bright spotlight glows in the right background. The scene is largely dark, with the illuminated shrine as the focal point.
