Behind it, yellow marigold garlands and white jasmine strands hang against a dark carved stone wall, with a small red flower visible on the yellow garland. At the left edge, a figure in orange saffron cloth and a maroon garment is partly visible with a gold ornament. The background is blurred, and the image is a close view of a ritual flame and floral decoration.
