A smiling person with long dark hair, wearing an orange saffron wrap over a red sleeveless top and orange cloth, stands with palms pressed together in namaskar and gazes upward on a stone step. Beside them a bearded man in orange robes with a red-bordered shawl looks up with folded hands at his side. In front, a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with a sacred thread looks up, and a man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands nearby, with other devotees behind. The setting appears to be a temple or ashram courtyard.
