Visual Description
A large shaggy Highland cow with long horns fills the foreground, stepping through gently rippling purple water. Behind and to the right a smaller cow grazes near a stunted tree whose branches bear seven round pentacle coins. The sky is a warm gradient of yellow and peach, and the scene is framed by an elongated oval with a small banner at the top marked VII. The composition emphasizes the weight and texture of the animal’s coat and the round, patterned discs hanging like fruit on the tree.
