A group of people walks barefoot along a dirt road lined with coconut palms, past a thatched-roof hut and a yellow bulldozer. In front, a man in saffron robes with an orange head covering and a beaded mala necklace leads the way. Behind him, a bare-chested elderly man wears a white dhoti and a rudraksha mala, and a woman and other men in white shirts and dhotis follow. A young boy in a yellow shirt walks at the left edge, and a younger man in an orange shawl walks on the right. Whether the saffron-robed leader is the page's subject cannot be confirmed from appearance, so he is described by role only.
