Close view of a ritual abhishekam setup on a white-covered altar before red curtains. Several dark stone murtis stand on pedestals, one with red-painted eyes and a conical crown in the centre, others with raised hands and halos. A large carved face in the foreground is partly covered in white and dark residue. A hand holding a lit oil lamp, with a gold bangle on the wrist, reaches in from the right. No people's faces are visible, and no one is identifiable as a person.
