A black stone Nandi bull statue is being bathed with liquid. Golden droplets spray in the air around the bull's head and chest, which is decorated with a rope-like collar and beaded ornaments. Behind it, a person in orange clothing extends an arm, and red flags and a red-painted temple structure with small stone shrines are visible on the left. The scene suggests an abhishekam ritual at a temple, with a white signboard and pole in the background.
