Photograph of a weathered sandstone ghat facade in Varanasi with a yellow sign reading Mahanirvani Ghat above an arched doorway. Five men stand on the stone steps in the entrance: on the left, a bearded figure in a pink-and-orange robe; in the centre, a bearded man in a light robe with a loose shawl; and on the right, a man in red-and-orange dress with a red turban holding a garland, plus a smaller figure in orange at the edge.
