A photograph of a glass-fronted display case with a flat screen showing a close-up of a long-haired figure with a red bindi, hands in anjali mudra, wearing orange clothing against a blurred green background. Two people in white garments with orange shawls stand in the foreground with their backs to the camera, and a third person in a white floral top stands at the right edge, all facing the screen. Mist or haze drifts across the scene. The on-screen figure is a depiction, not a physical person.
