A man stands under a covered open pavilion with a red pillar and red hanging ring frame, palm trees and foliage behind him. He wears a white dhoti and white shoulder cloth with gold-and-orange borders, a long dark rudraksha mala around his neck, and holds his hands together at his waist. Beside him at the lower left is a yellow silk cloth with a red border. A wooden cart stands in the background. The man's appearance is consistent with a shaved-headed devotee in traditional South Indian white ritual clothing; identity is not established from appearance alone.
