A photograph of an indoor domestic room where a long-haired man in white clothing with a green-and-red sash sits on a brown upholstered sofa with decorative gold-patterned cushions. He rests his hand on the head of a kneeling young boy in a blue-and-white checked shirt, while a woman in a red, orange and brown patterned sari with flowers in her hair leans in beside them. Behind the sofa hang red and green curtains, a fire extinguisher is mounted on the wall, and orange roses and yellow flowers fill the frame.
