A courtyard of a temple-like compound with pigeons feeding on scattered grain on a pale concrete floor in the foreground. A man in an orange robe and rudraksha mala sits cross-legged on an orange cushion on a raised platform at right, beside a small brass vessel and a garland draped on a stone deity sculpture. Several women in white and yellow saris sit meditating on low platforms in the background among stone deity murtis, a snake-hooded sculpture and palm trees, with a red signboard at left. Scattered gravel beds surround the seated figures. The man in orange appears to be a candidate for the subject, but identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.
