A young man stands in front of a painted diorama backdrop of grassland with bison and trees, beside a wax figure of a Native American man wearing a feathered headdress, fringed beaded clothing and a dark skirt. The standing man wears a bright orange-saffron turban and orange kurta-style top under a dark black long coat, with a red bindi on his forehead and a dark red collar. He smiles toward the camera. A brown informational plaque reading Red Cloud is visible at lower right, and a date stamp reads 03/09/2004. A single person is physically present. Swamiji (probable) cues include the long swept hair and saffron turban and orange clothing of the standing man, so the appearance is a plausible candidate but not certain.
