A black stone Nandi bull statue, richly carved with a patterned saddle and a beaded necklace, is being bathed with a golden-yellow liquid poured from a metal vessel held by an unseen person above. The liquid streams down the statue's head and flank onto a dark base. A partially visible person in white dhoti with a gold ornate necklace stands at the upper right, pouring. Behind are a yellow wall, two black chairs, and a small white object on a chair.

Shallow water and oily residue surround its base. Behind it on a draped grey cloth stand copper kalashas and a large brass vessel, and a lit brass oil lamp burns to the right on a wooden floor with a patterned red rug.
