A man stands centrally on a dark stage in front of large animated orange-red flames projected on a backdrop, costumed as a Shiva-style ascetic. He wears a leopard-print headwrap with a small crescent ornament, a red bindi, multiple strands of rudraksha beads across his chest and arms, and a saffron-orange draped garment with a leopard-print sash. His right hand rests on his hip while his left hand raises a tall silver trident with a leopard-print wrapped shaft, a small damaru-like drum at its base. He stands on a zebra-striped cloth. Appearance-based cues (rudraksha malas, saffron dress, ornate headwear) suggest a person performing a staged presentation; the rest of the scene is his performance backdrop. Only one person is visible.

He wears saffron-orange draped robes, a patterned headband, layered rudraksha malas and a gold necklace, with a sash at the waist. His right hand is raised in blessing. Beside him a tall trident with a leopard-print cloth wrapped on its shaft stands upright. He stands on a leopard-print pedestal with a leopard-print cushion. The figure has long swept-back hair and matches the distinctive ceremonial cues, so this is a person appearance on stage, presented as a depiction staged in performance rather than a ritual setting with other participants.2017-09-18September 18 20172017-09-18 +1 copiesSeptember 18 20172017-09-18September 18 20172017-09-18September 18 20172017-09-18 +1 copiesSeptember 18 20172017-09-18
