A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a concrete wall in front of a wooded hill with rocky outcrops under an overcast sky. His bare upper body is partly draped, he wears a beaded necklace and a gold-toned waist belt, and a red tilak marks his forehead. He rests his hand against his cheek and looks off to one side. Loose papers lie beside him on the wall, and a small blurred figure appears at the bottom edge of the frame.
