1988 - Ochre Robe Given by Arunagiri Yogishwara

A photograph of a single seated man on a woven mat at the centre of a circular sand floor ringed with white-grey stones or ash, apparently at night. He wears a white kurta and white dhoti with an orange-saffron shawl draped over his shoulders, hands joined in his lap, eyes lowered and facing away from the camera. The setting looks like an outdoor training or meditation ground with scattered twigs. The scene reads as a monastic brahmacharya practice in a sand circle.
