A priest in a rust-red turban and matching red-orange dress sits by a river bank beside a fire pit lined with yellow-orange bricks, pouring herbs from a silver plate into the blazing fire during a homa. A copper bowl with a ladle sits to the right, silver plates of red flowers lie to the left, and a wooded hillside with temple structures rises behind the water. Ash-white markings are visible on his arms, rudraksha beads hang around his neck, and a red sash is worn over the shoulder. The figure has shaved-to-matted hair and no visible cues sufficient to identify a specific person, so he is described by role only.
