Two women perform a night fire-spinning dance on a dark open ground. Both wear red fitted bodices and long red skirts with gold patterned trim, gold shoulder collars and gold crown-like headpieces with gold armbands. Each holds a fire-torch baton, with flames streaming from both ends as their arms are spread wide. The dark setting and visible fire make a striking performance scene. No a person candidate is visible.
