A photograph of a dimly lit, smoky stage scene bathed in blue and green light, with green leafy foliage framing the background. A standing figure in a dark outfit with a reddish-orange shawl and a dark cap with a small white emblem stands at centre, partly obscured by haze. To the left stands a trident-like metal form and a carved animal head in the foreground. The figure appears to be a statue or a tableau figure rather than a clearly identifiable living person, and no clear appearance-based candidate can be confirmed. Smoke or fog fills the frame.

A single standing figure in a dark robe with a dark head covering stands at centre, one hand on the hip, beside a metal vessel or small ornamental fixture emitting smoke or mist. Lush leaves fill the background. No clear facial or costume cues establish the figure's identity, so the person is described by role only as a figure in dark ceremonial dress.2017-06-17A figure seen from behind stands on a stage lit in green and blue, with a tall shaped blue-black turban and long dark hair falling down the back.

The figure wears a tall dark braided headpiece with a small ornament, a rust-red and maroon robe with a dark draped shawl, and holds a ceremonial staff or rod in one hand while the other rests on the hip. Behind them, dense green foliage is lit by blue and green stage lighting, with trident-topped metal pillars on either side. The scene is a theatrical tableau; no readable names are visible, and the figure's identity cannot be determined from appearance, so the a person field is unsure.2017-06-17A photograph of a person standing with their back to the camera on a stage lit in blue and green, surrounded by leafy plants. The figure wears a tall dark blue turban with a small ornament, a long dark blue braid cascading down the back, a maroon jacket with gold trim, and dark blue draped trousers, with one hand on the hip and the other holding a small object.
