A stage performance on a red carpet in front of ornate golden carved panels with elephant and figure reliefs. Three dancers in white dhoti-style trousers and ankle bells perform. The left dancer wears a red blouse with gold waist belt and raises one arm; the centre dancer wears a red and gold skirt and is bent low; the right dancer wears a red blouse and holds the far edge of a large green patterned cloth. The cloth is semi-transparent and shows a faded printed portrait of a man in a dark jacket, which is a printed picture, not a physical person. Scattered petals lie on the stage.
