A multi-tiered brass aarti lamp with several lit oil wicks is held in the foreground, its flames glowing warmly. Behind it, a blurred framed portrait of a person in orange robes hangs within a gold-ornamented shrine niche. Strings of orange bokeh lights decorate the top, and turquoise, yellow and pink painted pillars frame the scene. Out-of-focus figures in the lower background suggest a ritual setting.
