A female dancer in a pale gold and cream traditional costume with a gold necklace and hair ornament performs on a red stage with white skirting. Her arms are raised in a classical gesture. Behind her a large red banner shows a smiling man in an orange turban and saffron robes, with the word "Anandotsavam" in decorative script. On the right, three musicians sit on the stage: a drummer in red, a woman singer in white, and a man at a harmonium. A tall striped cloth pillar stands at the right edge beside a curtained ceiling. The banner portrait is a printed depiction, and the candidate's appearance matches the page's a person reference only partially, so the identity is uncertain.
