A seated man eats from a steel plate on a polished white floor, bringing his right hand to his mouth. He wears a white dhoti and white shirt with an orange shawl over his shoulders, a red tilak on his forehead, a rudraksha mala, glasses and a gold wristwatch. Beside him, a second seated man in white with an orange shawl is partly visible, and an orange-clad figure occupies the right foreground. A steel bowl with a small white dish sits near the plate. A standing person in white clothing and a hanging orange cloth appear in the background, with steel vessels on a counter at upper right. The setting resembles an ashram dining hall with a notice board behind.
