Outdoor ritual scene at a white-walled ashram courtyard with a flower bed behind a low wall. In the foreground, two terracotta pots with leaves and white painted markings sit on a brick hearth, with a brass oil lamp and steel bowls nearby. A man in a long-haired, shoulder-length style wears an orange robe and a garland of beads and gold-coloured ornaments; he holds a brass bell and extends it toward the lamp. Beside him, a bald man in an orange robe and orange head wrap stands with palms pressed together in namaste. Behind them, a bearded man in white with a yellow shawl holds a brass vessel, and other devotees in white and yellow stand in the background, some with hands folded. A woman in an orange sari with green border also joins in with folded hands on the left. The scene suggests a ritual offering being performed.
