Close view of a ritual fire ceremony. A person in a maroon-red robe with multiple rudraksha malas and red beaded bracelets sits behind a dark box-like altar, holding a long silver-handled ladle with a yellow tip over the fire. Silver bowls with ornate engraved designs and small oil lamps sit on a silver tray in the foreground, with smoke rising. A stone mortar and pestle is at lower right, and a silver vessel stands at the upper left. The figure's face is not visible, so the person's identity cannot be determined from the image. Scene resembles a homa or yagna offering.
