The image is a black and white photograph of a group of Buddhist monks posing for a group photo. The photo is taken in a garden or park, with trees and bushes in the background. The monks are arranged in a semi-circle, with some standing and some sitting on the ground. They are all wearing traditional robes and appear to be of different ages and ethnicities. Some of the monks are standing while others are sitting, and they are all looking directly at the camera. The photograph appears to be from the early 20th century.
