A decorated ritual altar at a homa event: a tiered wooden pedestal with carved golden lions, a five-hooded cobra and a turtle base, topped by a kalasha-style arrangement of coconuts and pots wrapped in red and purple cloth and draped with red, yellow and white flower garlands. Two small carved seated sage figures flank the lower tiers, and a decorated orange-and-red flag with floral motifs stands at left. A brass lamp and a small offering cup sit nearby, and a bundle of grass lies at the front. A cream fabric backdrop hangs behind. Two partially visible people appear at the lower left edge in orange-toned clothing. The scene is a ritual altar setup rather than a portrait of any person.
