Painted on the wall are large portraits of a man with long dark hair and a white turban and white robe, plus a smaller portrait of a man in an orange turban. A tall blue-and-white sign reads Vasantha Nursing Home. No people are physically visible in the scene; the figures appear only as painted portraits. Multi-storey buildings, palm trees and power lines stand behind the wall under a pale blue sky.

Street photograph of a pale green and white building wall painted with large portrait murals of a man with long dark hair, a white head wrap in one panel and an orange head wrap in another, and a readable Tamil text panel between them. A sign on the left reads Vasantha Nursing Home, a clinic. Two bicycles, one with a cargo cart, are parked on a dirt road in front of the wall. No people are visible apart from a partial figure at the left edge. The painted figures are depictions on the wall, and the man in the murals has long hair and a white or orange head wrap, so the appearance cues are partial. The page links these murals to a person, but appearance alone is not sufficient, so the identity is marked unsure.2005-11-13November 13 20052005-11-13A street-side wall in a town setting, painted teal and white with a yellow stripe.
