A large, sprawling banyan tree dominates the frame, its many thick aerial roots descending from horizontal limbs into a central trunk cluster. Circular raised stone platforms with pale rims surround the base, and dry earth lies beneath. A few orange-clad figures are partially visible at the lower right near a dark stone slab, but no people are clearly identifiable in the main scene.
