Visual Summary

Brief Description

A fragmented painting of a haloed figure in striped blue and brown attire, holding a staff

Detailed Description

A heavily damaged, rectangular painting on a light brown, textured surface. The painted area is roughly central and irregular, with significant portions missing. A haloed figure is depicted waist-up, facing slightly to the left. The face is light-skinned with dark outlines for the eyes, nose, and mouth. A light brown halo encircles the head. The figure wears a garment with alternating horizontal stripes of blue and light brown on the arms. The torso features vertical stripes of blue and light brown, with some green sections. The figure's right hand is raised to chest level, palm facing outwards, with fingers slightly curled. The left hand holds a long, slender object, possibly a staff or spear, which extends diagonally upwards and to the right. The top of this object has a dark, irregular shape, possibly a flag or a spearhead. The background behind the figure is a faded light green. To the left of the figure, a large, curved blue shape is visible, possibly part of a wing or another element. The painting is severely deteriorated, with numerous cracks, chips, and areas where the paint has flaked off, revealing the underlying light brown material. The edges of the painted area are uneven and ragged.
