A photograph of a gilded Shiva lingam set on an ornate gold pedestal with a raised hooded cobra canopy behind it. The lingam is draped with garlands of yellow marigolds, red roses and purple flowers, with green leaves. Beside it stand a tall brass oil lamp and small brass vessels, and at the right edge a white-cloth-draped offering area. Partly visible at the left are the lower folds of a figure's white and gold skirt, dark green skirt and orange-gold cloth. A white building with a red-striped base stands in the background.
