A dusty outdoor ground with scorched patches and ash-darkened earth beside a white-walled building under an overcast dusk sky. Several people sit on low brick blocks with their heads and faces wrapped in white cloth, dressed in white and light clothing. A man in a white dhoti and an orange shawl stands in the centre-right, looking toward the seated group. A seated person in a maroon garment pours from a blue bucket, and a metal vessel lies on the ground at the lower left. A red tractor-trailer is parked at the far right beside a utility pole.
