A man stands outdoors on a dirt path with his palms pressed together at his chest and eyes closed in prayer namaskar. He wears a rust-orange unstitched cloth draped over his shoulder and a matching orange dhoti with gold-bordered edges, a long gold bead necklace, a small gold earring and a ring, and a white sandalwood tilak with a red kumkum dot on his forehead. Behind him a second man in a white dhoti and shawl with gold borders holds a tray with red offerings. Red-orange buildings and green trees form the background. The man's identity is not visible from appearance alone, so he is described by role as a devotee performing prayer.
