Exercise of Power

Without asking, uses the existing power. The weaker of the partners must yield.

Visual Description

Visible text along the left edge reads "RE - KING - KÖNIG - REY - ROI" and a small wand symbol appears at the top border. An older crowned man sits on a throne draped in a patterned tapestry, wearing an ermine-trimmed cloak and blue garments while holding a long staff upright in his right hand. A nude woman with dark hair and a light veil kneels in front of him, positioned between his legs, and the scene is framed by a decorative background with star-like motifs. The composition is vertical, with the king occupying the upper portion and the kneeling figure the lower foreground.
