He sits on an ornate silver-framed throne and extends his hand toward the head of a grey-haired, bare-backed devotee who bows before him. Behind him stands a second attendant in white with a rudraksha mala and gold beads, holding a small object. The background shows a stone pillar and yellow and red cloth. Appearance-based cues (long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold necklace) suggest the seated figure may be a person, giving a blessing to the devotee during a Shiva deeksha ritual.2017-10-05May 13 20182018-05-13 +1 copiesJuly 28 20172017-07-28July 07 20172017-07-07 +1 copies
