Close view of a large bronze or copper vessel filled with glowing embers and flames, with a bundle of dry twigs or plant matter being fed into the fire from above by a hand in an orange-brown sleeve at the top right. Smoke rises around the flames, and the vessel rests on a red, pink and green striped cloth. No people's faces are visible; the scene suggests a homa or fire ritual in progress.
