Outdoor procession under a pale, cloudy sky with a small sailing ship model flying in the air above the crowd. In the foreground a woman in a dark red garment holds a silver trident, and a silver axe and a silver spear rise on the left. Behind them, people in orange and red robes and white clothes walk in a group. On the right, a man in an orange-brown robe stands beside a large multicoloured umbrella with tassels. Several people wear rudraksha-style beads. The scene reads as a ritual procession with ceremonial weapons carried by devotees.
