Several white-robed men with long beards and turbans sit nearby, and an orange-robed figure with a shaved head and a yellow cloth sits at right. In the foreground, the heads of a few listeners are partly visible. A flagpole with orange pennants stands at the right edge. a person cues are not clearly established, so the identity remains uncertain.
