At the top sits a large deity murti with a tall ornate headdress, partly covered by orange drapery. To the left, a row of seated figures in white garments with red cloths sits behind a red-covered table, and a person in red clothing is partly visible at the left edge.

Several people in red and maroon clothing sit on the upper tiers among the lingams, holding long wooden or brass instruments that appear to be ritual horns or staves. Cables run across the steps and a white metal railing stands at right. Trees and a fence are visible in the background. The scene appears to be a prepared ceremonial setup for a ritual event.2013-07-22
