A man in white dhoti and shirt wears an orange-red shawl and a beaded rudraksha-style necklace, his arms outstretched to one side. Behind him, several men in white dhotis and a man in green stand near the entrance, two drummers in white with drums play, and a colourful floor kolam decorates the road in front. Other men in white shirts stand at the right edge.
