In the foreground, a long-haired figure in saffron robes and a gold necklace kneels at a brick-lined pit of grey ash and charcoal, placing a small clay pot into the ashes. Three saffron-robed young men sit on the grass behind, with brass vessels, small clay pots and offerings set on a cloth. Several men in white dhotis and shirts stand watching, and a man in white clothes stands at the right. Tall bamboo poles with orange cloth stand in the background.
