Detailed Description
A horizontal painting depicts a nude woman and a human-headed snake in a landscape. The woman, with light skin and long, wavy reddish-brown hair, lies on her left side, facing right. Her left leg is extended backward, and her right leg is bent forward. Her left arm supports her weight on the ground, while her right arm is extended forward, reaching towards a tree trunk on the right. Her gaze is directed towards the snake. The snake is dark-colored and coiled around the tree trunk. Its head is that of a fair-skinned woman with reddish-brown hair, similar to the nude woman's, and it looks down towards the nude woman's outstretched hand. The tree has a few branches with green leaves at the top. The background features a landscape with rolling hills and a body of water in the distance under a light blue sky. On the far left, there is a large, dark brown, rocky formation or mound. The ground in the foreground is a mix of dark brown and green. The overall lighting is soft and even.
