A large, ancient banyan tree dominates the frame, its broad canopy of spreading limbs and dense green leaves arching overhead. Many thick aerial roots hang and descend from the branches to the earth around a massive, gnarled trunk. White metal poles stand around the tree base on a raised circular platform of reddish earth. At the lower left, a small shrine-like structure with a dark arched niche sits beside a heap of red cloth or offerings.
