Outdoors beside an orange corrugated metal container, a man with long dark hair and white forehead markings walks barefoot along sandy ground, hands joined in front of his chest. He wears a bright orange top and rust-brown dhoti. Behind him an assistant holds a tall decorated parasol with multicoloured fringed tassels. A group of people in orange, saffron and white clothing stands in a line along a gravel path, one man in a white shirt among them. A low stone-edged concrete slab lies in the foreground beside a rocky embankment and a red brick wall with trees beyond. The man in orange appears to be a person by hair length and orange clothing, but the image is uncertain.
