A photograph of a seated person in an orange-red robe and gold necklace with rudraksha beads, holding a lit flame in a silver bowl during a ritual before a silver throne-like seat under an ornate embroidered silver canopy. Marigold garlands decorate the setting, and a silver trident stands at the right. A silver vessel, bowls and a small shivalinga-style object sit on a red-draped table. The person's head is shaved? No: dark hair is visible, with sandalwood/vibhuti marks on the forehead and a red kumkum dot. Kind of a puja or aarti-type offering with a flame.

May 20 20142014-05-20A seated man in a maroon-red robe and rudraksha mala with a gold necklace sits on a silver throne-chair beneath an ornate red and gold beaded canopy with a trident hung on the right. He holds a silver cup and pours from a silver vessel over a small deity murti on a red-draped table, appearing to perform abhishekam. Marigold and white flower garlands decorate the canopy, trident and backdrop. The scene has a single person visible and a ritual setting with a trident, kalasha-style vessel and peetha-like seat.2014-05-20 +1 copiesA seated figure in a red-orange cloth and rudraksha malas with gold ceremonial necklaces holds a flaming wick over a silver puja vessel while performing a ritual. Behind a silver ornate throne back, marigold garlands hang on pillars and a tall silver lamp stand with flowers rises at right. Silver bowls, a kalasha-style pot, and offerings of red flowers sit on the table. The figure has a tilak on the forehead and a smiling downward gaze. The appearance is a probable match for a person based on the saffron-red clothing, rudraksha malas, gold necklaces and the throne setting; the ceremony is a puja with an oil lamp and ritual vessels.2014-05-20 +1 copiesMay 20 20142014-05-20May 20 20142014-05-20May 20 20142014-05-20 +1 copiesMay 20 20142014-05-20May 20 20142014-05-20May 20 20142014-05-20A photograph of a seated figure at a ceremonial altar draped in silver-and-gold embroidered fabric and marigold garlands.
