The person wears a rust-red garment with a gold-bordered edge. A small brass lamp and a wooden stand sit at the top left corner.

A bare foot in the upper left wears an orange-and-gold garment hem; the foot rests over a large polished silver tray with scalloped edges. A person's hands hold a silver pot-shaped vessel and pour water over the foot, which is being washed. A wristwatch with a brown strap is visible on the pouring wrist. Water pools on the stone floor. A second bare-footed person may be partly visible at the top, but only feet and hands are seen. The scene suggests padapuja-style foot washing, rendered plainly.2012-06-04
