A shaven-headed man in saffron-orange robes and gold necklaces carries a silver tray with a red cloth bundle tied with gold-yellow ribbon, bowing his head toward it. Behind him a second man in orange clothing stands in the foreground, with a blurred crowd of people in white clothes in the background, some with hands folded in prayer.
