A figure with long dreadlocked black hair and a saffron-orange cloth draped over the shoulder, bare-chested with rudraksha beads on the upper arm, stands in the foreground seen from behind. Facing them is an older bare-chested man with a grey beard, rudraksha mala around his neck and a gold bracelet, touching his chin in thought. Behind them is a yellow temple-style building with triangular recesses on its walls and a dark doorway, with a small plaque on the right edge.
