A photograph of a seated man with long dark hair, bare-shouldered and wrapped in an orange-saffron cloth, wearing a long white flower garland with orange, green and blue accents. He sits on a white-draped seat beside a grey stone shrine with carved floral relief, holding a long wooden staff upright beside him. Other people's heads are partly visible at the bottom edge. The surrounding area shows yellow cloth and construction materials. Whether the seated figure is a person cannot be determined from appearance, so he is described by role and clothing only.
