Three young boys in maroon robes with gold trim sit indoors playing long curved gold horns, one of which is held aloft, while a small red curtain hangs at left and a white wall with a light switch panel is behind them. White vertical tilak lines and red bindis mark their foreheads, and the boy at right wears an orange-robed sacred thread and bead necklace. Their attire and horn-playing suggest a temple or ashram ritual setting.
