He reaches toward a small boy in a blue-and-white striped shirt and blue shorts. A man in a white shirt steadies the child from behind. Behind them, a cameraman in white and orange clothing films, and a woman in white stands under a red-draped tent. A decorated altar with brass and silver pots and flowers sits at the left.
