A woman in a white embroidered tunic and dark pants stands at a marble-topped counter, smiling as she scatters white jasmine flowers from her hands onto the surface. Beside her, a large life-size cutout print of a smiling man in a red turban, orange robes and a red bindi, with a red and white floral garland around his neck, is shown with palms raised in greeting. A stainless steel pot and a black bag sit on the counter in a tiled room with recessed ceiling lights.

Behind her, a life-size printed figure in a red turban, red robe, white flower garland and rudraksha mala stands before a magenta drape. The figure is a printed photo or cutout, not a physical person; the woman's presentation is ordinary, so no identity claim applies. On the altar are a brass deity figure, a small seated statue, a shiva-linga style stone, white flowers and a yellow fruit offering, with a framed sign reading partial text in gold.KAILASA SAN FERNANDO, TRINIDAD & TOBAGO on 5/30/20222022-05-30 +1 copiesA photograph of a life-size cardboard cutout of a smiling figure in an orange-red turban, a red bindi, and an orange-red silk garment, draped with white flower garlands and brown rudraksha malas.
