A decorated temporary entrance arch of white cloth with yellow and multicoloured streamers spans a dirt road across open farmland under a clear blue sky. Two tall printed portrait banners flank the path, each showing a smiling woman with long dark hair in a pink garment and a garland of flowers. Beyond the arch, a small group of people in white, cream and red-bordered saris and orange garments stands near a white single-storey building and a parked white car. Strings of bunting run across the scene, and young saplings line the right side of the road.
