A photograph of a stage set inside a hall, with a gilded ornate frame flanked by large golden lion-like carved pillars and a dark red velvet curtain with hanging brass bells overhead. At the centre, beneath an arch with a lit lamp display, a standing figure in a reddish-orange robe holds a long staff with a trident-like top, while a golden trident and other ceremonial metal implements stand on the floor. Patterned rugs cover the platform, and blue lighting fills the background. The figure appears to be a statue or effigy on the stage rather than a living person, so no physical people are counted.
