Two men walking in a street with buildings along the sidewalks. There is a younger man in a yellow shirt walking towards the camera while the older man is walking away with his back turned. The word “Devagar” is written in large white words on the street.
A mannequin with wooden hands stands in front of a sun like mirror. An urban setting can be seen in the reflection of the glass.
