A performer in a Krishna-style costume stands on a stage with both arms raised overhead, palms together, smiling broadly. He wears a purple turban with a peacock feather and gold band, a pink satin top with gold jewelled necklaces and a red-beaded mala, gold bangles, a maroon sash and a bright yellow dhoti with gold border. Seated and standing devotees in white and green clothing clap and smile behind him, under a white tent canopy with striped hanging decorations. The setting suggests a devotional stage performance.
