A dark stone Nandi bull statue with a carved harness and bead-and-leaf collar is being drenched by a stream of water poured from above. Behind it, a figure in flowing saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala pours the water over the bull, while green foliage and a red-painted structure appear at the right. The water spray glistens against the dark stone. The figure is partially visible and cropped at the top, so no identification is made from appearance.

A black stone Nandi bull statue sits outdoors, its head and face being bathed by a stream of water poured from above. White and orange flower petals are scattered over its forehead and between its horns. A ropelike garland and a beaded necklace drape its neck. Behind it stands a white plinth, a palm tree and a grassy open-air compound. At the right edge, an orange cloth hangs from an unseen figure's garment, but no person's face or body is visible. The scene suggests a Shiva temple abhishekam on a Nandi statue.
