A homa fire pit lined with yellow marigold petals and white powder-drawn borders burns strongly, with orange flames rising from wood and offerings piled in the square brick-like pit. A small steel bowl containing a yellow liquid sits at the right edge beside the fire. Partial green and yellow floral decorations surround the pit, and the upper right corner shows a seated figure in white clothing near the fire. No other people are clearly visible.
