Several saffron-robed sannyasis wearing orange head cloths stand grouped in the foreground. The man at the front right has long dark hair, wears an orange robe and sandals, and gestures toward the floor. Beside him, a man in an orange robe with an orange head cloth and beaded necklace stands near a bearded sadhu. A white-shirted man stands to the right, and another stands at the back. The floor is strewn with carved wooden or copper-coloured temple panels, figures and architectural pieces, with a wooden easel and tools nearby. The setting appears to be a craft or sculpture workshop.
