Photograph of a weathered stone sanctuary doorway at Angkor Wat, Cambodia, with carved lintel and worn pillars. Inside the recess sits a dark stone figure, partly obscured by decay, draped with a long orange cloth. Small brass or gold-coloured figures flank the entrance, incense sticks stand in a holder, a yellow cloth lies on the floor and a large round metal gong or bell rests in the foreground beside a red-and-silver ceremonial implement. No people are visible.
