Seven or eight men sit or crouch on newspaper-covered ground, stringing yellow marigolds, white jasmine and red roses into long garlands; piles of yellow and white blossoms and loose petals lie around them, and sacks are stacked along the back wall. A man in a white shirt and dark trousers stands at the centre-right, and a tall garland with bands of red, white, purple and yellow hangs on the right edge. No a person candidate is visible.2015-01-03A group of men sit and stand on a floor covered with newspaper in a red-walled room, stringing and sorting marigold and rose flowers into garlands. Yellow and orange marigolds, white jasmine, and red and purple flowers are heaped around them. A tall garland pillar wrapped in red, white, yellow and purple blossoms stands at right beside a man in a striped shirt and blue trousers. The men wear white shirts, checked shirts and lungis. Sacks and a blue bag sit in the background. No a person is visible in this flower-preparation scene.2015-01-03July 07 20092009-07-07December 30 20062006-12-30A photograph of an open-sided flower stall under a corrugated tin roof. A man in a white short-sleeved shirt and dark trousers stands at a metal table strung with red and yellow flower garlands, reaching for a garland. Beside him a woman in a light blue sari sits on the ground sorting yellow flowers into a basket. Two finished garlands in red, yellow and white hang from the rafters on the left, and a white cloth and plastic bucket sit nearby. A banner above shows a smiling portrait of a woman in orange with floral border text reading NITHYANANDA FLOWER STALL.2009-09-22A floor-level photograph of men stringing and assembling flower garlands inside a temporary wooden-framed room. Several seated men work on mats: one in a white vest, others in striped and plaid shirts. Piles of marigold-style yellow and red blooms, purple flowers and green leaves are scattered across an orange cloth. Finished garlands in yellow, red, purple and green lie in rolls. Behind them are draped white and pink statues, bolts of cloth and bags, and a red curtain hangs at right.2011-12-12A group of men sit and stand on a floor covered with loose yellow, white and red marigold and rose petals, stringing garlands in a red-walled hall. Men in white shirts, a checked red shirt and a striped shirt work cross-legged on sheets; one man in a white shirt and dark trousers stands at left, and another in a checked shirt and blue trousers hangs a multicoloured flower garland on a pillar at right. Plastic bags, a metal pot and plastic cups lie nearby. The scene looks like preparation of floral decorations for a ritual or festival, with no visible figure identifiable as a person.2015-01-03
