A photograph of a seated figure at a ceremonial altar draped in silver-and-gold embroidered fabric and marigold garlands. A man with a yellow-and-white tilak on his forehead, wearing a red-saffron shawl, rudraksha malas and a gold necklace, bends over a silver vessel on a glass-and-silver stand, with small cups and a red-covered table in front. Behind him is a silver-framed seat under an ornate fringed silver canopy, and a silver trident hung with marigolds stands at the right. Another person in an orange turban and gold jewellery sits at the left edge.
