A pale, unpainted plaster or clay sculpture of a recumbent bull, the Nandi, lies on a rough wooden board in a dim room. The bull has an upturned head, a decorated collar with round medallions, and a patterned saddle cloth across its back. No people are visible. The base is a smooth raised plinth, and the surface shows small chips and marks typical of an unfinished or freshly cast figure.
