A standing man in profile wears a rust-red turban with gold trim, a long multicolour garland of pink, white and green beads, and a rust-red dhoti with gold borders, with long dark hair falling down his back. He is barefoot on a concrete floor in an unfinished hall with scaffolding and cinder-block walls. Behind him, a seated man in saffron cloth with white forehead markings sits beside a yellow cabinet, and a bare-chested attendant in white is seen at right with a woven basket of leaves and a red cloth nearby. A rust-red turban and the long dark hair with the rust-red dhoti and garland are visible cues, but the figure's identity cannot be confirmed from appearance.
