Detailed Description
A muscular, bald figure with a strained facial expression dominates the center of the frame, set against a light, unadorned background. The figure has blue eyes, a short dark beard, and dark eyebrows. They wear dark, flowing robes, primarily black and grey, with red and purple cords wrapped around their arms and waist. Their skin is light and pale, showing prominent musculature. The figure holds a long, thin blue sword with a red hilt, angled diagonally from upper right to lower left. Their body is contorted, with bare feet visible, one stepping forward. Below and to the left of the main figure, a large, disembodied head lies on its side. This head is bald, with a strained expression, blue eyes, and a short dark beard. Green, leafy or spiky elements are visible around the base of this head and near the main figure's left arm. Small, irregular brown fragments are scattered throughout the scene, particularly around the sword and the figures' limbs. In the upper left corner, vertical characters read: "深知魯尚和花".
