A young boy in saffron-orange dhoti and shawl pours water from a brass vessel over a dark polished Shivalingam on a black stone yoni-peetha base. He has white sacred ash marks on his forehead and arms and wears rudraksha beads. Behind the lingam stands a golden seated statue of a figure with a golden turban and a raised hand in blessing, set on a marble pedestal. A brass trident stands to the left and a small pink flower lies near the base. The setting is a temple shrine with granite walls, consistent with a daily abhishekam ritual.
