A black stone Shiva lingam in a brass base is decorated for worship. Three horizontal white lines and a red dot mark its face, a small jewelled crescent moon is set at its top, and a gold chain with rudraksha beads is draped around it. A white cloth covers its base and a white hibiscus flower rests beside it. Behind it stand brass trishula tridents, white and red flower garlands, and a painted backdrop of a saffron-robed figure. Pale flowers lie on a silver ornamented tray in the foreground. The photo carries a timestamp of 12 Jan 2025 and Kancheepuram, Tamil Nadu.
