Close-up photograph of a Shiva linga on a stepped copper-coloured yoni-peetha base, dressed with gold jewellery: a large gold and jewelled crown-like ornament with red, green and pink stones on top, and a heavy gold necklace set with ruby-pink and green stones and a central pendant showing a deity figure. White jasmine stems with green tips are scattered over the linga and the base, and more lie in the foreground. Behind is ornate gold repoussé metalwork with figures and scrollwork. No people are visible.
