Photo taken from above inside a long, dim storeroom with a yellow-painted steel pillar and exposed fluorescent tubes overhead. Shelves on the left hold stacks of terracotta lamps and clay pots, and a large wooden door leans against a wall in the lower left. A line of people walks down a narrow aisle on the right: a man in white clothes near the shelves, women in orange, red and pink saris and salwar, and several people with backpacks and handbags, some carrying small items. Two women in the foreground, one in a red sari and one in an orange sari with a beaded necklace, walk toward the camera. A blue cloth and a purple woven bag are visible among the items behind the shelves.
