Outdoors on grass beside a white wall, workers carve and polish a long grey stone sculpture of a mythological creature with a serpentine body and a crocodile-like head. A man in a pale orange shirt with a red-and-white checked cloth on his shoulder kneels at left, working on the stone. Two men in striped shirts and white dhotis stand bent over the sculpture at centre, one holding a power tool with a cord. Behind them stand several tall carved grey stone deity figures with crowns and multiple heads, and a green plant with blue flowers grows at right. A blue bucket sits on the ground in front. Bright red flowers appear in the foreground.
