Close-up photograph of bare feet standing on two small brass pedestals with spiked tops, each holding a yellow fruit or lemon beneath the soles. A figure wears a saffron and maroon garment with a red and orange-gold cloth and red beaded garland above the feet. Behind is a tiger-striped cloth draped over an ornate gold-embossed seat, with a red velvet cushion and an orange draped table below.
