A man in an ochre-orange dhoti and shawl stands on a wooden bench inside a dim temple hall, sweeping the upper wall or ceiling with a long broom. A second man in a green shirt and dark trousers, with a gold bracelet, stands beside the bench watching. A doorway behind them opens onto a brighter area where other figures are faintly visible, and blue plastic bags are stacked at the left edge. Concrete pillars and dusty surfaces suggest temple cleaning and renovation work. a person cues are a bare-shouldered orange robe and shaved head, though the face is not clear enough to confirm.
