A photograph of a ritual scene with smoke rising in the foreground. A seated man in a leopard-print turban, rudraksha mala beads and a red-orange wrap sits behind a wooden frame holding a cylindrical wooden device. Beside him a younger man with long dark hair and a red cloth over his shoulder leans in, one hand on the wooden frame. In the lower left a third man in white dhoti and white body markings tends a small flame in a wooden block. A stone mortar and pestle sit in the foreground. Glittering golden and green decorations form the background.
