A tiered brass lamp, a multi-level deepam with many lit oil lamps arranged on concentric ring-shaped trays that rise up a central stem, against a dark background. Flames glow along every tier, and a hand holding a long-handled oil lamp enters from the right edge, lighting the top. Warm light scatters across the backdrop. No people are clearly visible other than the partial hand. Ritual lamp lighting, possibly an aarti or deepa puja setting.
