A close view of a golden ceremonial vehicle or deity adornment, with a gilded elephant-shaped head ornament and a polished gold cylindrical pillar wrapped in flower garlands. Long garlands of yellow marigolds, red roses and white jasmine strings drape over it, with green leaf crowns at the top and small green-and-gold hanging ornaments. A brass oil lamp stands at right, a blue cloth lies at left, and a gold tray sits below. No people are visible.
