Brief Description
Two figures with bows sit on a purple hill under a dark, starry sky with a moon
Detailed Description
The rectangular image depicts a night scene with two figures seated on a large, undulating hill. The upper portion of the image is a dark blue sky, dotted with numerous small white stars. A pale, circular moon is visible in the upper center-right. A lighter blue band forms the horizon line beneath the starry sky. The central feature is a large, purple-brown hill with a wavy, textured surface, occupying the lower half of the image. On the left side of the hill, a figure with light skin, dark hair, and a topknot sits facing right. This figure wears an orange lower garment, a white and striped sash, and white arm and leg bands. A quiver of arrows is visible behind their back, and they hold a bow. To the right, a second figure with dark skin, dark hair, and a topknot sits facing left. This figure wears a yellow lower garment with red dots, a white and red beaded necklace, and white arm and leg bands. They also have a quiver of arrows and hold a bow. To the far left, a tall, slender tree with a light brown trunk and a dense, green, vertical, striped canopy stands. To the far right, behind the dark-skinned figure, a smaller tree with a brown trunk bears several clusters of yellow, banana-like fruit. The entire scene is framed by a thick, reddish-orange border.
