Beside it, a smaller silver-toned figure stands on a pedestal wearing silver anklets. A hand from the top edge pours liquid over the central figure, which shows a thin orange stream. Behind them are a blue brocade cloth, a red and gold patterned backdrop, yellow flower garlands, a brass bowl and a green container. A partly visible figure in a blue sari appears at the right edge. Abhishekam is being performed on the deity murtis, with no people in the foreground beyond the hand.
