Close view of a dark black stone Shivalinga decorated for worship in a temple. Thick garlands of red roses, red and white carnations, and yellow flowers with green leaves drape around it, along with dark rudraksha bead strands. A gold-embroidered cloth with a jeweled floral medallion and a blue-and-gold border covers the top. A gold-and-gem silver band and a gold pedestal base with a gold pot-shaped ornament sit at the base. Shivalinga, not a person, is the subject; no people are visible, and the background shows gold and red fabric.
