Outdoor scene beside a large banyan tree with many hanging aerial roots and a trunk wrapped around a small enclosed shrine area. A man with a swept-up dark topknot, bare-chested and wearing a rust-red dhoti and a rust-red shawl, stands gesturing with an open hand toward the tree and a stone platform. Opposite him, an older man in a white dhoti and white shawl with red-and-gold border faces him with his back partly to the camera, and a bearded man in white dhoti with arms crossed stands at left. Another bare-chested man in rust-red garments, with a topknot, stands at right, and a woman in an orange-and-white blouse with a patterned skirt stands nearby. Paved stone path and red brick edging around the tree base. Visible cues only; no identity asserted.
