A photograph of a standing figure framed within an ornate golden archway decorated with multicolored flower garlands in red, yellow, purple and green. The figure wears a tall ornate gold crown, a green and orange silk wrap, layered gold and bead necklaces, white jasmine garlands, and gold armbands, with bare arms and feet. A tiered brass oil lamp stand with lit flames stands at the left, and a larger brass lamp stands at the right edge, with hanging lamps above. Gold metalwork covers the arch and pillars. The setting appears to be a temple or ritual stage at night. Only this one standing figure is physically visible in the scene.

To the right, a tiered brass lamp with many lit wicks hangs beside a silhouetted onlooker, and small oil lamps burn on the sides. The scene is dark apart from the lamps, and the arch and doorway shimmer with gold.
