Visual Description
A fully armored knight rides a large chestnut horse, gripping a long upright spear and holding a glowing pentacle disc. The horse rears slightly, its mane flowing, while a pale sun or moon hangs in the sky behind them. At the horse's feet a green dragon-like creature is struck by the spear, writhing with an open maw. A decorative banner along the bottom names the card 'Knight of Pentacles'.
