Nandhi is always positioned facing God Shiva traditionally. This statue was facing Darbhar (Royal court) inside the palace complex which housed temples as well.

Angle of the Sun rays amidst the leaves and shadows had revealed the inner veins of the flower and made the petals sparkling. I liked the effect and the colors.
