Two men kneel on a concrete floor working on wooden planks, carving and shaping lengths of pale timber. Both wear plain white dhoti-style cloth around their waists; one has a gold wristwatch and a red thread on his wrist. Wood shavings and chisels lie scattered around them, with several smooth boards laid out in the foreground. No person of the a person candidate type is visible; the scene shows woodwork in progress.2006-09-05 +1 copiesDecember 18 20092009-12-18December 13 20092009-12-13December 13 20092009-12-13A photograph of a craftsman kneeling on a concrete floor, carving a long wooden beam with a chisel and mallet.

The older man on the left, in a white shirt and white dhoti, holds a chisel against a wooden block. The younger man on the right, in a white striped shirt and grey trousers, sits on a wooden block and steadies the wood with both hands.

Wood shavings and offcuts surround him, with stacked timber and tools on the ground, a plastic bag, and a red and navy backpack against a concrete wall. A small orange thread is tied on his wrist. The scene reads as a workshop carpentry task.2009-12-06Close-up photograph of hands carving a block of pale wood with a chisel and mallet.
