A photo of a figure standing in a lit doorway-like niche within an ornate temple-style set. Flanking the niche are two large orange sculpted multi-armed deity statues with crowns, holding ritual objects. The central standing figure wears a crown or headpiece, a gold necklace, a maroon-brown cloth draped over the shoulder, and holds a tall trident. Strings of warm fairy lights and hanging bells surround the niche, with brass lamp stands on each side and green and orange stage lighting on the walls.
