A standing man in a green silk dhoti-style garment with a red-and-gold patterned border stands barefoot beneath a large banyan tree with many aerial roots and sprawling branches. His hair is pulled back in a knot, he wears a gold-and-red beaded necklace, and his palms are pressed together at his chest in an anjali gesture while he looks upward. Behind him a stone-edged platform and a red flower rest on the ground.
