A photograph of a stage performance at an indoor hall with a blue brick wall. Several young girls in colourful traditional Indian dresses dance with arms raised: one in a grey top and purple skirt, one in an orange top and green long skirt, and others in pink, green and checked outfits. Centre stage stands a framed portrait on an ornate gold pedestal decorated with yellow, orange and purple marigold garlands, white flower strands and a golden canopy topped with a kalasha finial. The framed portrait shows a robed figure with a garland seated in meditation, which is a printed portrait and not a physical person. A brass oil lamp stands to the right beside the dancers. The red-carpeted stage has potted palms at the front corners.
