A photograph taken from inside a red stone archway on a riverside ghat, looking out over a wide, fast-flowing muddy-green river toward dense green trees and shrubs on the far bank. In the lower left, a man in white clothes with an orange-red shawl sits on a stone bench beside a bundle of cloth, his face in shadow. Bare stone steps lead down at the arch's base, and a pair of sandals rests near the right pillar.
