In the foreground, a man in a saffron-orange shawl and dhoti wears a long multi-strand gold necklace and a gold headband, with long dark hair swept back and a red bindi on his forehead; he walks with his hands held together at his waist. Behind him, several men in white dhotis with red-and-gold borders and gold necklaces walk barefoot; one on the right carries a silver tray.
