A stage tableau of a Shiva-themed scene. A performer seated cross-legged on a gold-decorated dais wears long dark hair, a white forehead band, a leopard-print or spotted garment with a beaded necklace, and an orange-red lower cloth. His eyes are closed and hands rest on his knees in meditation. A golden trident stands upright beside him, with a small drum nearby. Behind is a painted blue wall with white ornamental trim and a brown-gold rocky mountain backdrop draped in fabric, evoking a Himalayan cave. A white electric fan stands at the lower left.
