A figure seated on a plush magenta velvet chair at left, wearing an orange-red sleeveless garment with a leopard-print waist cloth, a gold necklace, red tilak and long swept-back hair, with a bejeweled staff and a silver-toned peacock figure beside the chair. Purple and green stage lights fill the dark floor. Whether the seated figure is the a person is uncertain from appearance alone; the figure may also be a statue or display figure. One physical person is visible.
