A stage photograph in blue-violet light shows a person seen from behind, with very long dark hair falling down the back, wearing a maroon garment with gold trim and gold armbands, one hand on the hip and the other holding a silver trident. The figure stands before a large painted backdrop of a deity with a red forehead mark, a white bull with a rope and bells, and seated bearded ascetics. Wisps of stage fog drift on the right, and a white and orange tiger-striped seat is visible below.

The figure wears a maroon garment, copper-toned armbands and bangles, and holds a silver trident in the right hand while the left hand rests on the hip. Ahead stands a large painted backdrop of a multi-armed deity with a tall crown, red tilak, and rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, seated beside a white bull. Painted seated sages with beards fill the lower sides of the backdrop. Smoke or haze hangs in the air. A figure in the scene may resemble a person, with long hair and a trident, but the view is from behind and the appearance is uncertain.2016-02-04 +1 copiesFebruary 04 20162016-02-04 +1 copiesFebruary 04 20162016-02-04 +1 copiesFebruary 04 20162016-02-04 +1 copiesA photograph in deep blue stage lighting shows a single seated figure seen from behind, with very long straight dark hair flowing down to the floor.

The figure holds a silver trident in one hand and rests the other hand on the hip. Behind is a painted backdrop of a deity with a bull, and a striped tiger skin rug lies at the base near a wooden railing. The cool blue-violet lighting suggests a staged Shiva-themed performance rather than a worship ritual. a person is not visibly identifiable from appearance.2016-02-04 +1 copies
