A decorated Shiva lingam is the central subject, draped in a red silk cloth with gold zari border and covered with a dense pattern of brown rudraksha beads and white beads in a lattice design. A red rose sits atop the lingam with a second rose at its base, and a white cloth lies behind it. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, with gold-and-white garlands and an ornate gold-tasselled backdrop of orange and blue-and-silver fabric behind. No people are visible.
