A seated man in orange saffron robes sits cross-legged on an orange cushion placed on a wooden board and woven mat, with his palms pressed together in namaste and eyes closed. He wears a dark beaded rudraksha mala around his neck and a small red bindi on his forehead. A brass kalasha-style vessel with a spout sits beside him on a patterned ground of stones and decorative powder. Behind him are a red pole, a pile of sand and a white vehicle with a yellow top, on a paved courtyard. The scene looks like outdoor meditation or prayer. The man has no distinctive headdress or ornate gold, so his identity is uncertain.
