A large banyan tree dominates the frame, its thick grey trunk and sprawling aerial roots spreading wide over a shaded garden. Circular white-rimmed raised beds of reddish-brown soil are laid out around its base, with a few thin white posts or stakes standing among them. Far back under the branches, a small white pillared shelter stands, with a figure in orange and yellow clothing near it. The scene is calm and green, with dappled daylight filtering through the leaves.
