A figure in orange-saffron robes and an orange head wrap sits cross-legged with their back to the camera beside a blazing fire in a brick-lined fire pit at night. Brass and silver vessels, a small ornate lamp and offering dishes are arranged on a low platform in the foreground. Another person in white clothing sits partly visible at the left edge. The figure's appearance is not clearly distinctive enough to confirm a specific identity.
