Detailed Description
A standing figure is positioned centrally against a dark background. The figure faces forward, with eyes directed downwards. An elaborate golden crown adorns the head, from which long, dark hair flows down the shoulders. The figure wears ornate jewelry, including a prominent necklace and armbands. Flowing robes in shades of dark brown, black, and cream, with subtle red and orange accents, drape around the body. The figure's right hand is raised with fingers slightly curled, while the left hand holds a string of small, light-colored beads. The figure stands on a swirling white and gray cloud formation at the bottom. Behind the figure's head is a golden halo, and numerous thin, golden rays emanate from behind the entire body, extending outwards towards the edges of the dark background. The dark background itself has a subtle, repeating pattern of small, dark shapes. The central painted area is bordered on the left and right by wide, solid blue fabric strips. Above and below the main painting are narrower sections of gold-colored fabric with a repeating dark pattern.
