A central man walks barefoot along a striped pink, green and yellow cloth runner between two rows of devotees with palms pressed together. He wears a reddish-brown dhoti and shawl, a large multicolour flower garland of red, white, yellow and green, and a gold pendant necklace with rudraksha beads, and carries a tall staff topped with a golden finial raised overhead. Around him, young girls and women in saffron-orange saris and kurtas, some with orange turbans and forehead markings, stand with hands folded. Red pillars, a red wall, green foliage and a white car sit behind them, and a woman in a yellow sari stands at the right edge.2017-09-02Outdoor ceremonial scene on a raised mat.
