A woman in a red sari with a gold border and a rudraksha-style bead necklace bends forward under a tin-roofed cowshed to tend a young brown calf. She has her hand on the calf's head and appears to be offering care or gosewa. Behind her a black-and-white cow stands tied to a bamboo frame, and a clay pot hangs from the roof beam. A mud wall, a heap of dung and a tree sit beyond the shed under a pale sky.
