At centre, a long-haired person in an orange-saffron shawl and red-and-white flower garland, with a yellow-orange headband and rudraksha-style beads, walks among a crowd. Two red umbrellas and a decorated frame with bunting stand behind. Around them, many people in white and cream dhotis and saris with orange shawls, some with hands folded, press in closely, with a speaker and ornamental poles visible at left. The scene reads as a temple festival or Brahmotsav procession.
