A man in a blue and white checked shirt and striped lungi crouches on a dirt floor, bending over and holding a large clay-coated mould or casting block with both hands. Beside him are a steel jug, a steel bowl, a pair of blue pliers and a stone block, with a cracked clay wall and a large metal pot behind. The setting looks like an outdoor workshop, and the man wears a red thread on his wrist. No a person candidate is visible, and the page's a person flag does not fit this scene.
