Yellow turmeric or kumkum powder is dabbed on top of the lingam and on the base, and a white bead garland is wrapped around its middle. A small magenta flower sits at the bottom edge and a yellow thread lies at the left. The background is blurred with dry brown earth and green foliage.

Water or milk is being poured from a golden spout held by a person in white clothing at the upper right, arcing over the lingam. Behind it a second dark lingam stands on a base, with brass pots and a deity murti in orange and red on a tray of flowers and offerings. This appears to be an abhishekam being performed. No people are clearly visible beyond the white-clad arm and hand.2016-12-18
