Detailed Description
A rectangular image shows a vibrant outdoor scene with a large gathering of figures. The background features a light green sky transitioning to darker green trees and foliage, with a few small birds flying in the upper left. The ground is a light brown. In the upper mid-ground, several rectangular banners with intricate designs and circular motifs, some containing text, are suspended from poles. Below these, a row of figures, appearing mostly male, are dressed in colorful, patterned robes and hats, holding poles with banners or other objects. A large, white, fan-like structure is visible in the center background. The foreground is densely populated with numerous figures, appearing both male and female, in highly detailed, brightly colored robes featuring patterns in red, gold, blue, green, and white. Many wear elaborate headwear. Some figures, appearing male, have prominent beards and painted faces. In the lower center, a prominent figure, appearing possibly female, is seated on a wheeled platform or cart, wearing a blue and white patterned robe. This central figure is surrounded by other standing figures, some holding long poles or lanterns. The figures are arranged in multiple rows, creating a sense of depth within the crowded scene.
