One man in orange robes stands at left, another in white dhoti with a yellow shawl kneels at the centre near a bundle of flowers and an orange cloth, and others in white and yellow garments are gathered around. The setting suggests a small outdoor puja or prayer at a hill shrine overlooking the temple town.
