Hands with gold bangles pour water from a small silver cup over a silver tray filled with white jasmine flowers, pink rose petals, green leaves and a gold-toned object. A second pair of hands and a dark-haired head appear at the right edge. Silver and gold vessels surround the offering. No clear face of a principal figure is visible, so no a person candidate is identifiable.2010-11-24A close photograph of a ritual abhishekam. A bare-shouldered man wearing a pink and yellow flower garland and a gold beaded armlet pours liquid from a silver-gold vessel with a spout. Below, on a silver tray stand, a small gold metal deity murti stands beside a silver lamp and a stone figure; a thin stream of liquid runs from the spout onto the tray. A large gold cloth fills the lower foreground, and a red curtain is in the background. The hands are wearing rudraksha-style beaded bracelets. Only partial bodies are visible, so one person is shown.2013-05-27November 05 20102010-11-05April 23 20132013-04-23 +2 copiesOctober 29 20102010-10-29Close photo of a ritual in progress.
