Behind, a large black stone Nandi bull wears a marigold garland and sits on a red-brown pedestal, and a row of black stone deity murtis and serpent-hooded stone figures stands in the background. Saffron and red flags are planted nearby, a colourful cloth-wrapped pole rises at the centre, and a coconut palm tree frames the scene.
