Two saffron-clad men walk barefoot through a white granite temple colonnade, seen from behind. The man on the right wears an orange turban and an orange dhoti with a yellow waist sash, his long hair falling down his back. The man on the left wears an orange shawl with maroon borders and a matching dhoti, his long dark hair loose. Ornately carved granite pillars frame the open pavilion, with a stone sculpture visible at left and a small square pit in the floor. The scene is bright and sunlit. Both figures are unidentified devotees or sannyasis; no face is visible and the appearance cues are insufficient to name anyone.
