A bronze standing murti of a deity, garlanded with yellow and marigold flowers, is being poured over with a yellow liquid from a brass pot held by a shirtless man wearing a rudraksha mala. Beside him, a bald man in an orange-and-rust dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala leans forward. White metal scaffolding frames the scene, and a blurred crowd sits in the background.2016-12-03March 03 20112011-03-03A gilded metal murti of a deity with a tall crown and orange draped cloth is being anointed. A silver vessel held by a hand at upper left pours a golden-brown liquid over the statue, which glistens as it runs down the orange cloth and sacred thread. The deity holds a staff-like emblem in one raised hand and gestures with the other. Partially visible at left edge, a second gilded figure with a radiant back halo wears orange cloth. The setting is an abhishekam ritual, with blurred light background. No living person is clearly visible apart from the pouring hand.2011-10-07A bronze statue of a standing figure is being bathed with a golden-yellow liquid poured from a brass pot held by a bare-chested man with rudraksha beads, who stands at right. The statue wears a garland of yellow flowers draped from shoulder to waist and rests on a raised pedestal in front of white metal scaffolding and a blurred crowd. A bald man in an orange dhoti and shawl leans over at lower right, with rudraksha malas around his neck. The scene reads as an abhishekam offering to a murti, with liquid splashing off the statue. Brass vessels sit in the foreground.2016-12-03March 03 20112011-03-03 +1 copiesNovember 27 20162016-11-27 +1 copies
