A dark stone Ganesha murti, seated with four arms and an elephant trunk, is being bathed. A person's arm, wearing a bangle, pours yellow liquid from a golden vessel over the head and body of the deity. The liquid runs down the black stone base and pools on the platform, with small white flowers scattered at the base. Brow markings are visible on the forehead. The setting is a plain pale turquoise wall behind the murti, consistent with an abhishekam at a temple shrine.
