A barefoot man in an orange and green silk dhoti-style garment with a gold border and an orange shawl walks along a dirt path lined with flat stepping stones, under overhanging green trees. He wears a long rudraksha mala and a red tilak on his forehead and holds his hands together at his waist. Behind him, a shaven-headed man in an orange robe with a rudraksha mala follows, and a figure in white stands further back among the trees. Red brick walls and leaves frame the outdoor scene. The rudraksha mala and swept orange-and-green attire are visible cues, but the taller man's identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.
