A home shrine arrangement photographed up close on a glass-topped table. A framed photograph in a gold frame at the back shows a smiling man with long dark hair in an orange-saffron garment and a white flower garland, raising one hand beside a banyan tree's roots; this is a printed portrait, not a physical person. Along the back right is a painted image of Shiva with a trident, a white bull and a crescent in the hair. In front, a small silver-edged pedestal holds a golden figure and a tiny framed picture of a seated figure in red-orange robes against a golden arch. A brick-red folded turban rests on the right with a gold brooch. Oil lamp with a lit flame, white jasmine flowers, yellow marigold-like blossoms, a small bowl of offering, a golden Ganesha figure with pink flowers, a purple elephant figurine, and a white dice sit among the offerings.
