A seated man in an orange saffron robe sits cross-legged on a woven mat over a wooden platform, raising one hand in a gesture while the other rests near his lap. Beside him on the mat is a small brass vessel with a spout. He sits inside a circular ring of grey ash on a paved courtyard, with a red-brown wooden cart and wheels behind him and a sign board at the top left. The man has long dark hair tied back and a light forehead marking, and the scene appears to be an outdoor ritual or discourse setting.
