A man stands on a stage against a dark starry backdrop with glowing red and purple light streaks and a red flame shape behind him. He wears a tall rudraksha-bead crown topped with a crescent moon, white and red tilak marks on his forehead, and a red-brown wrap with a leopard-print cloth. Layered rudraksha malas hang on his chest and arms. He holds a silver trident wrapped with a leopard-print shawl in his right hand, with his left hand on his hip, as a performer in a Shiva costume. Swamiji (probable) is described here by the crown, rudraksha malas and trident cues; the appearance is consistent with a stage performance in Shiva character.
