A photograph of a single figure seen from behind, standing in a warm, smoky red-lit hall. The figure has very long, dark hair worn loose down the back, a red headband or cloth tied at the crown, and a leopard-print sleeveless garment over a red wrap. The right hand rests on the hip and the left hand holds a tall, slender golden staff. Behind is a large painted or sculpted deity murti with ornate necklaces and a seated pose, flanked by red-and-orange decorative pillars. The figure appears to be a costumed performer or devotee rather than an identifiable individual.
