Photograph of a single man standing beside a dark red curtain in front of a large illuminated silver-toned statue of a deity adorned with many layered necklaces. He wears a red turban with a jewelled ornament, red sleeveless garment, heavy gold garland and gold pendant, leopard-print cloth around the waist, and red beaded armbands and bracelets. He holds a tall silver staff upright in his right hand. Clothing and ornaments are consistent with a person appearance based on the turban, long hair, ornate gold necklaces and saffron-red clothing, but the face is not used for identification. The setting resembles a stage or temple backdrop.
