A woman in a yellow blouse and white patterned sari bends forward in prostration on a concrete floor under a red corrugated roof, touching the ground in front of a tethered black-and-white spotted cow. Scattered pink flower petals and grain lie on the floor. Behind them, a gold-coloured shrine canopy with pillars shelters a seated statue of a figure in a red and gold robe wearing a red turban and white garland, with a green cloth draped below. A white kolam design is painted on the red wall at right, and a metal fence and clear sky appear beyond. The scene suggests go seva at a gaushala.
