Three cows stand on a stone floor in front of a golden shrine. In the foreground a brown calf with a white blaze and a yellow thread tied at its neck nibbles fresh green grass. Beside it a black-and-white spotted cow with white-tipped horns eats grass from a woven basket, its forehead marked with red and yellow kumkum and turmeric. Behind them a green silk cloth drapes a golden shrine with a tiered canopy and a dim figure inside. Scattered red and yellow petals lie on the floor, and a kolam-style geometric design is painted on a red wall at right. The scene reflects go seva, cow worship in a temple setting.
