A photograph from behind of one standing figure on a stage, hands on hips, wearing a rust-red cloth draped over the shoulder and wrapped at the waist with gold borders, a heavy beaded rudraksha-style necklace with gold beads, gold armlets and bangles, and hair tied up. Beside the figure is a carved wooden throne-like chair with a cushion, a tall silver trident (trishul) standing in a brass pot with dripping decoration, and a dim grey backdrop. The figure's face is not visible; the scene reads as a stage darshan or ceremonial presentation.
