Outdoors at a construction site, a long-haired man in orange saffron robes and rudraksha malas sits cross-legged on a green cushion beneath an ornate red, green and black embroidered parasol with coloured tassels. He tends a small flame in a silver cup over a wooden tray holding silver vessels, a bowl of grains, and a plate. A white cloth covers the ground in front, with a green gourd, a bowl of yellow flowers, and fruit nearby. Behind him are piles of cut grey stone, a stone wall, and a metal scaffold tower under a cloudy sky. A man in white, partly visible at the left edge, is also present. The orange-robed man with long hair and rudraksha malas is a probable Swamiji by appearance, seated as the officiant.

Their hands are pressed together in prayer, eyes closed. Before them on a low wooden platform and white cloth are brass vessels, a plate of fruit, a green pumpkin-like gourd, yellow flowers and a small flame. Two tall silver lamps and a flower arrangement with a striped cloth stand on a concrete ledge. Stacked rubble and a dirt ground surround the scene.
