Behind them a man in a light blue shirt and grey trousers walks, and another elderly man with white hair and beard is partly visible.

The shorter man in red-brown is not clearly recognisable as the a person by appearance, so he is described by role only.2016-01-28March 14 20142014-03-14March 14 20142014-03-14November 05 20132013-11-05A procession outdoors at an ashram-style compound with a red-washed wall and stone steps.
