A man with a short dark beard, a red and yellow tilak on his forehead and a long braided bun, performs a lamp ritual while seated. He holds a brass oil lamp with a lit flame in both hands and raises it toward the smoke drifting in front of him. He wears a yellow shawl over a white dhoti, a shell-and-bead rudraksha-style mala, a wristwatch and a gold ring. Behind him, several people in white dhotis and white shirts wear gold-colored beaded garlands, and one holds a bell. The scene suggests a puja or aarti setting with smoke and lamp offerings.
