A young man in a white-and-blue striped shirt and jeans crouches beside it, looking toward the camera and working on the statue with tools. Two other men in white dhoti and shirt stand in the background among dry palm fronds on sandy ground. Tools lie on the cart. The statue appears to be a temple procession vehicle element.2010-01-05December 13 20092009-12-13December 16 20092009-12-16A workshop photograph showing a large pale wooden bull statue, a nandi-style figure with red-tipped horns and an ornamented saddle band, being worked on by a man in a white vest and maroon dhoti who touches its head. In the foreground a man in a white shirt and white dhoti sits on the floor working near the statue's base, with an older man in a checked shirt beside him. Behind them are racks of brass lamps, a gilded chair and metal stands, and to the right a grey stone bust of a man with a shaved head sits on the floor. The yellow walls and corrugated roof frame the scene.2015-04-28July 13 20132013-07-13 +1 copiesAugust 23 20152015-08-23January 05 20102010-01-05A man in a white short-sleeved shirt and khaki trousers sits barefoot on the ground, working on flat brass or gold-coloured metal plates engraved with decorative script-like borders.
