A man seated cross-legged on a low wooden platform outdoors, wearing an orange-saffron shawl draped over his shoulders and a matching orange lower garment, with a red tilak mark on his forehead. His hands rest folded in his lap and his gaze is directed to the side. Beside him on the ground is a small brass kalasha or vessel. Behind him is a wooden cart or trailer frame, and to the right a red stone pedestal stands beside a dark sculpture. Nothing about the appearance clearly confirms a specific identity, so this is a seated devotee or sannyasi in saffron. Two people are visible at most.
