A photograph of a large round metal vessel set on a paved ground, filled with a floral arrangement. Concentric rings of red, pink and yellow petals surround a central white field of rice or grains, on which a red-petalled swastika is laid out with white frangipani-style flowers placed at its corners. Pink hibiscus blooms are scattered among the rings. No people are visible, and the scene reads as a flower and grain offering arrangement, possibly for a ritual.
