A photograph of a Shiva lingam dressed in an orange cloth wrap, decorated with a gold-and-gemstone face, a five-headed golden cobra hood with green stones, rudraksha mala beads draped down the front, and a gold band encircling its base. Behind it are golden deity figures and red drapery. In the foreground, a small metal oil lamp and a bronze arched frame holding a small standing figure with a green garment sit before the lingam, with an orange cloth and a jeweled blue border. A faint hand appears at the lower left edge. No people are visible apart from a partial hand. The lingam is an ornamented deity murti, not a person.
