A performer in a dimly lit stage setting, lit with red and green stage lights, smiling broadly. The figure has blue-green painted or lit skin, a tilak on the forehead, and long curly dark hair flowing back, with a rudraksha mala and bead bracelets. They hold a silver-gold trident (trishula) in the lower left foreground. Behind them a curved golden glowing arc and dark draped backdrop. A bare-shouldered sleeveless top with a red sash. This looks like a theatrical depiction of Shiva; no clear identification of a specific person is made.
