Brief Description

Two men in a dark landscape: one armored and sleeping, the other with leafy hair, pointing

Detailed Description

Two male figures are depicted in a dark landscape under a stormy sky. In the upper right, a muscular man with reddish-brown skin is shown bare-chested, leaning forward. He has long, green, leafy hair and a matching beard, and his right arm is extended, pointing downwards. His lower body is partially obscured by rocks and shadows. In the lower left, a bearded man lies on the ground, his head resting on a light-colored cloth or rock. He wears a white cloth wrapped around his head and is dressed in silver-colored armor, including a chest plate and leg coverings, over a light-colored tunic. His eyes are closed, suggesting sleep or unconsciousness. A long, thin sword lies on the ground beside his right leg, and his feet are visible, wearing sandals. The background features a dark, cloudy sky in the upper left, with sparse, dark vegetation resembling tall grasses or reeds on the left and behind the figures. The ground is rocky and uneven, rendered in shades of brown and dark green. The overall lighting is dim, with highlights on the figures' skin and armor.
