Beneath the shade near the trunk, a few small figures are visible, including one person in orange or saffron clothing standing at the right and another in white seated on the ground at lower center. Brick-red platforms or raised bases surround the tree's base, and a red-and-white structure is faintly visible in the background. A hanging rope or cord descends from the upper canopy. The scene appears to be an outdoor ashram or temple grounds.2017-07-06A large, dense banyan tree with spreading aerial roots and many hanging branches fills most of the frame, its dark trunk and thick canopy of green leaves shading the ground beneath.

Beneath the trunk, two small figures in orange clothing stand near the base, and to the right stand painted deity statues, one in orange and gold robes beside a dark-blue figure. A hanging rope descends from the branches. The scene is an outdoor shrine area with a red boundary wall behind. The two figures are visibly small and distant, so their identity is uncertain.2017-07-16
