A person in an orange saffron robe stands with back to the camera on a rocky outcrop, hands on hips, gazing across a dry, open landscape of boulders, scrub and sparse trees toward a distant hill and a road. A small open-sided orange-roofed structure sits on a flat platform in the valley. Dry grass stalks in the foreground frame the view under a clear blue sky. No face is visible; the figure is shown from behind, so the presence of a specific individual cannot be determined from appearance.
