A dry, red-earth construction site at the foot of a green, scrubby hillside with palm trees. Concrete building blocks are stacked in long rows across the ground. Several workers walk through the site: a man in a white shirt and checked lungi at left, a shirtless man in a blue lungi carrying a load, and two women in saris, one in brown with a green petticoat and one in pink, each balancing a flat basket on her head. Near the centre a small open canopy with a white cloth and a red-and-orange flower garland stands over a low platform, with two dark pillars beneath it. Loose sand heaps and a yellow cloth lie on the ground in the foreground.
