A performer in a theatrical Shiva-style costume stands inside a large ornate golden arch lit in red and orange, with yellow flame-like fabric behind him. He holds a trident in his right hand and rests his left hand on his hip, wearing a leopard-print garment, layered rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, chains and bead bracelets, with a flowing cloth at his waist. A painted stone-like backdrop and a small planter appear behind him. The setting looks like a staged production rather than a worship scene.
