Four lobed shapes in white rice, red-brown grain, yellow grain and black grain surround a central circle filled with yellow marigold petals, white petals and a small red flower. Whole pomegranates and red-yellow apples sit at the corners, with a dry grass stalk or blade laid across the design. Partial hands are visible at the top edge. No person's face is shown and no candidate for a person is visibly present.2016-02-27May 24 20172017-05-24 +1 copiesA decorated square ritual tray on a silver-edged base is covered with white cloth and arranged with pink and red flower petals, yellow marigold blooms, coloured grain or powder patterns in yellow, red and white, and a black grain square. Two red apples and a pomegranate sit at the corners, with a hand in a gold bangle placing a pomegranate at the right. A lit oil lamp glows at the left edge, with a woven basket and a brass vessel behind.

Four symmetrical petal-shaped patterns in white, red, yellow and black grain surround a central green-tinted cluster with yellow marigold petals. Whole apples, a pomegranate and a lemon sit at the edges, and a person's hands in white clothing are visible at the top edge. Long dried grass stalks lie across the design. No faces are visible, so no one is identified.2016-02-27August 14 20162016-08-14
