A temple scene where a man in an orange-red dhoti and a gold bangle pours liquid from a small silver cup onto the head of a white marble seated sage statue. The statue wears a white turban and draped shawl, sits cross-legged with its right hand raised in blessing, and is set on a rectangular base. Behind it stands a large dark granite basin, with a gold-toned pillar and yellow, red and purple flower garlands. A small gilt deity figure stands at the right edge. The man's bare feet and the statue are the focal points, and the pouring is a statue abhishekam. No living a person is visible.
