Outdoor garden scene at dusk with a thatched hut and palm trees behind a lawn and stone path. In the centre, a long-haired man in an orange sleeveless top and orange wrap stands with a red shawl patterned in gold figures, draping it over a bare-shouldered person in orange who bows, as a man in white shirt and orange dhoti stands with hands folded on the path. Two people in orange with hands in anjali pose in the left foreground, and a figure with a rudraksha-style thread is seen from behind at right. The shawl shows gold printed deity figures and marigold tassels hang from its ends. The a person candidate has long swept-back hair and orange clothing, but the appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity.
