Behind it, slightly blurred, an elderly woman with a white head covering and a red kumkum mark on her forehead watches. Warm orange and golden tones with smoke drifting upward.2015-11-18December 24 20152015-12-24July 18 20152015-07-18 +1 copiesA blurred, washed-out close-up of a ritual scene with a lit flame at left and a silver ritual vessel with a curved handle at center. A hand holding a silver item rises from the upper right, next to a person in white and a figure in orange and white draped clothing. Another hand grips a beaded strand near the bottom. Visible people include a child in white at left, a woman with glasses and a bindi-marked forehead at upper right, and a partially visible person in yellow. The scene suggests a puja or aarti with a fire lamp. No one can be confidently identified as a person from appearance.2010-09-08A dimly lit temple scene during an aarti: a shaved-headed priest in a dark garment holds a brass multi-flame oil lamp with several bright flames toward the viewer, his face partly hidden behind the lamp. A second figure in a white dhoti with a gold-bordered shawl stands at right, also holding a lamp. Garlands of yellow-green and red flowers hang on a decorated pillar or deity stand at left, with blurred background ornaments.2016-12-07October 15 20172017-10-15December 19 20102010-12-19 +1 copiesSeptember 28 20172017-09-28 +1 copies
