Photo of a large unfired clay sculpture of a seated figure with a turban and loose robe, shown in lotus-style posture, on a wooden worktable in a workshop. Behind it, a seated person in orange robes, orange head wrap and a dark bead mala sits on a cushion with one hand raised. Brass oil lamps and a wooden cabinet stand in the background. The clay figure is a statue in progress, not a living person. The seated person in orange is a physical presence, but the page does not establish who this is and the appearance is not distinctive enough to claim a match, so identity is left unsure. Visible text includes partial lettering on a wall sign.
