A black and white photograph of a small shrine with religious symbols. The shrine features a crucifix and two framed images, one of which appears to be a portrait. There are also a few objects placed at the base, including a white vase and what looks like a glass dome with a figure inside. The shrine is set against a backdrop of a cloudy sky and lush greenery.
