A smiling man stands on a stage wearing a bright yellow turban with a red bindi and a gold brooch, a green draped garment with gold-patterned borders, a yellow silk sash at the waist, and a long multi-strand necklace of orange and gold beads with a gold pendant. Beaded bracelets are on his wrists and upper arms. Beside him stands a brass oil lamp with a bird-shaped finial and a lit wick, and a microphone is in the foreground against a dark curtain. The man's presentation as a costumed performer in traditional dress is evident, but no distinctive a person cues are confirmed by appearance, so his identity is left uncertain.
