A photograph at night of a man in flowing saffron-orange robes seated on a folding metal chair on dark grass. He has long, dark, swept-back hair and a red mark on his forehead, smiling as he looks to the side while holding a long rod banded in red and black with both hands. At his feet sits a red-and-white woven basket holding small brass vessels and flowers. The background is almost entirely black, lit only by the surrounding darkness and the figure's edges.
