Behind him stands a large black Nandi bull statue draped with a white and red sash and a garland of yellow-green flowers, set on an orange-red pedestal beneath a tall orange-red kalasha-topped shrine structure. Palm trees, dark stone deity statues, and a brass kalasha vessel sit on the ground at lower left; kolam-style floor decoration surrounds the seat, and a hanging striped banner hangs at the upper right.
