A seated figure with long swept-back dark hair and a bare upper body wears a saffron-orange cloth around the waist and ornate gold bracelets on the wrist. He pours water from a silver vessel with a handle over a golden Shivalinga on a golden yoni-peetham base, next to a golden Nandi figure and a silver tray of yellow offerings. A small brass bell and a brass pot sit on a wooden stool in the foreground, with a leopard-print cloth behind. This appears to be an abhishekam ritual.
