A large framed portrait on an easel-style display shows a bearded robed figure with orange garments and beaded necklace, set beneath a decorative red and gold canopy. A metal trident stands to the left, with tall bamboo poles hung with orange tassels and brass pots around the stage, and orange-and-yellow striped drapes at the sides. Three people are visible: a long-haired person in orange robes with bandaged arms and a white forehead mark stands facing the portrait, a person in orange robes seen from behind stands beside them, and a bald man in white robes with an orange shawl holds a pink folder at the right. The portrait is a depiction, not a physical person.2008-03-31March 31 20082008-03-31Photograph inside a plain white-walled hall with a corrugated metal roof and a raised red-tiled platform on the right.
