Two female classical dancers perform on a stage in traditional Bharatanatyam-style dress. The dancer on the left wears a gold-and-white sari with a striped border and a white flower in her hair, and holds her arms outstretched. The dancer on the right wears an orange and yellow silk sari with a gold-trimmed border and a white flower in her hair, her hands in an expressive mudra. A row of red flowers and green foliage lines the stage edge, a potted palm stands at left, and a framed picture hangs on the dark backdrop above. Audience members' heads are visible at the bottom of the frame.
