A group of about a dozen people walks along a dirt road lined with a low concrete block wall on the left and coconut palms and trees beyond. Under an overcast sky, a man in an orange saffron dhoti and orange shawl, carrying a walking stick and a dark bag, walks on the right; the appearance is consistent with the page's claim of a person, though the identification is uncertain. Nearby, a figure in orange robes with a yellow-gold beaded necklace and a woman in orange walk in the centre, while men in white shirts and trousers and a child in a beige shirt and dark trousers walk among them. On the right, several women in white saris with gold borders and beaded necklaces walk in a row, and on the left a man in white with an orange shawl walks along the wall.
