Photograph from behind of a man with long dark wavy hair walking across a bright hall, wearing an orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulder and wrapped around his body with a maroon border. Orange and multicoloured hanging lamp shades decorate the ceiling. In the background, people in white clothing sit on mats and a blurred figure in white head covering sits in the foreground. Red chairs stand to the left and a blue sign hangs on the pale wall. The walking figure is wearing ochre sannyasi-style robes, but his face is not visible, so his identity is uncertain.
