A small grey stone shrine with a domed top stands on a brick platform in an open green field, with hazy hills behind. The shrine is draped with yellow and white flower garlands and green leaf strands, and a red flower garland encircles a framed portrait of an older man placed on a blue cloth at its base. Scattered petals lie on the platform. No people are visible, and the portrait is a printed photo, so a person is none for physical presence; the framed portrait shows a man in a dark garment, but no appearance-based identification is made.
