Four women walk barefoot along a dusty village road in the afternoon sun, wearing matching rust-orange sarees with gold borders and rudraksha malas around their necks. The woman at the left smiles and holds the end of her saree, while the others walk side by side, one with her head covered by her saree pallu. Palm trees, a pink-and-green house, leafy plants along the verge and a herd of cattle in the distance complete the rural scene.
