A photo of an arranged display of brass and copper ritual vessels on a dark navy cloth-covered table at an event venue. Brass kalashas, small cups, a pot with a mango-leaf and coconut-style bouquet, a tall stepped brass lamp stand and ornate golden boxes are grouped together. Behind the table, a gold-decorated doorway and golden canopy frame the scene. In the upper right corner a seated figure in red garments with pink flower garlands is partly visible, though the face is cropped out of frame, so no one is identified. No clearly visible person occupies the foreground.2016-12-05January 12 20152015-01-12Close photograph of a puja table covered with a magenta cloth, set with brass plates of yellow marigold petals, pink and purple flowers, a white conch shell on a leaf, brass bells, oil lamps, a small brass kalasha pot, and a golden deity murti with a bull figure. A red-and-cream tray sits at left, and a blurred figure in a red robe with a hand visible at upper right. No readable visible person is clearly identifiable as a person; the scene is of ritual objects on an altar.2013-10-24 +1 copiesJanuary 12 20152015-01-12Overhead photo of a set of polished brass puja vessels laid out on a beige cloth. Visible items include a brass kalasha-style pot, a large engraved tray with a central Om-like emblem, a pedestal lamp, a small bell with a handle, a conch shell resting in a dish, a spouted brass jug, a ladle, several small cups and bowls, and a lidded brass container. No people are visible.2007-03-15A photograph of an outdoor table draped in white cloth displaying an assortment of gold-coloured brass puja implements laid out against a grey concrete block wall. Included are tall ornate lamp stands, a multi-tiered lamp stand, small arched lamps, a bell with a handle, a kalasha-style brass vessel, a copper vessel on a stand, a conch shell, a trident-shaped object, plates, a spoon-like ladle and a round tray with a scalloped rim. No people are visible. Items are arranged in rows for display, as ritual paraphernalia.2005-04-07 +1 copiesClose photo of a ritual setup with ornate silver vessels and small silver oil lamps arranged on a low silver-legged stand. At the centre, a bronze female figure holding a flame stands among the vessels. On the right, a hand with a rudraksha bracelet rests near a silver pot and a dark wooden block. Behind, red cloth hangs in folds. Only partial arms of one person are visible, so the ritual participant is not identifiable and no face appears. The scene suggests an abhishekam or puja preparation with oil lamps and silver ritual vessels.2017-12-20 +1 copiesOverhead view of a set of brass ritual vessels laid out on a brown paper cloth. Visible items include a conch shell, a bell with a handle, a kalasha-style pot with a spout, small brass cups, a spoon-like ladle, an oil lamp, a round tray with ornate engraved rims, and a larger engraved brass plate and bowl. No people are visible.2007-03-15A flat arrangement of brass ritual objects laid on a woven striped mat on a concrete floor. A row of ornate brass lamp stands with arched hoods, some with small figures, stands in a line. To the right is a tall multi-tiered brass lamp with many cups, and a five-branched brass candelabra. A brass hand bell rests on an orange cloth beside a brass tray holding white cloth and small items. A small brass dish lamp and a folded cloth bundle are also visible. No people are present.2010-02-10A photograph of a cluttered display of brass and copper ritual objects laid out on a striped woven cloth in a dim room. Visible items include a copper repoussé panel with circular motifs, copper horn-shaped vessels, brass oil lamps on stands, brass bells, a stack of gold-coloured wrapped sheets, cone-shaped brass finials and small lamps. No people are visible, so this is an object arrangement rather than a gathering, and no one in the scene can be identified as a person.2016-12-12August 24 20142014-08-24January 01 20182018-01-01
