A metallic murti of Lord Subramanya, a deity form with a tall crown, a sharp feathered headdress and multiple arms, is being bathed with liquid during abhishekam. A hand at the left edge holds a vessel pouring liquid over the figure, which glistens on the golden-bronze surface. The murti holds a spear-like weapon in one raised hand and sits with one hand resting on the lap draped in white cloth. Warm golden light and blurred gold decor fill the background of the temple setting.
