A person in an orange garment with rudraksha beads and white painted arm markings pours from a vessel at the top of the frame. The statue stands on a dark stone pedestal with carved ornamentation, set in a temple setting with a dark stone abhishekam basin and water running down; the scene reads as an abhishekam offering on a statue.2021-01-18February 21 20172017-02-21February 23 20172017-02-23A close photograph of a brass or gilded bronze standing murti, with a hand pouring a golden liquid. The bronze figure is bare-chested, wears a carved waist cloth with a belt, and stands on a lotus-style base on a wooden platform. Behind it is a maroon silk drape within an ornate gold-toned arch with carved floral and peacock-like motifs, and a few small deity figures are visible at the upper right. The liquid streams down the body and pools on the base, indicating an abhishekam being performed.2024-02-29A photograph of an abhishekam being performed on a small bronze standing figure of a bald, smiling child-like sage with bare chest and a dark cloth wrapped at the waist, raised right hand in blessing. A hand in red-and-gold bangles pours water from a copper pot down onto the figure's head. Behind it is a sitting deity murti draped in yellow cloth on a lotus-shaped seat, and a pink flower lies on the pedestal. Water runs down the figure and the base of the altar. No people's faces are visible; only the hand and wrist are shown.2024-10-31December 23 20182018-12-23A bronze standing statue of a bare-chested figure with a short hairstyle, wearing an ornate patterned loincloth and bangles, being bathed with milk poured from a brass vessel held by a person's hands at the top right.
