A standing figure stands on a raised stage in a warmly lit, smoky hall with brass bells hanging above. He wears a rust-orange dhoti and a matching shawl draped over one shoulder, with a bead necklace and a gold ceremonial necklace. He holds a long staff topped with a trident, and beside him sits a golden bull figure. Behind him rises an ornate gilded arch and carved golden panels flanking a shrine-like backdrop with decorated figures. Oil lamps stand at the sides of the stage. Incense smoke drifts through the light. The figure appears to be a statue or tableau rather than a living person, given the stiff pose and painted look.

It wears a rust-orange draped garment with a sash at the waist. Beside it on the stage is a golden kalasha-like vessel with a decorative bull or nandi figure. Hanging brass bells and a soft smoky haze surround the scene, and an arched gold frame with carved panels rises behind. Because this appears to be a statue or depiction rather than a living person, no physical people are counted. The figure's identity is uncertain from appearance alone.2017-04-30 +1 copiesApril 30 20172017-04-30April 30 20172017-04-30April 30 20172017-04-30 +2 copies
