The sun sits low on the horizon, reflected in the water.A man seen from behind, with long dark matted hair falling down his back, bare-shouldered and wearing an orange-and-red shawl over his body, faces away toward a blurred yellow and pink backdrop. In the left foreground stand two tall ornate silver staffs topped with a trident, and a small silver figure is visible at the bottom edge. The scene suggests a ritual or temple setting.
