Two dancers perform on a red stage before an ornate gilded arched doorway with lattice panels and scrolling carved motifs, flanked by carved elephant friezes. A dancer on the left stands in a green and gold costume with a green blouse, jewelled necklace and a headpiece, one arm raised in a classical gesture. Another dancer in a blue costume with a purple shawl lies prostrate on the floor in front, arms extended, pressing forward in a devotional pose. The scene is a classical Indian dance performance staged as a temple-style backdrop.
