Visual Description
A robed woman sits between two tall pillars marked with the letters B and J beneath the Roman numeral II. She wears a horned crown topped by a glowing disc and a cross pendant at her throat, and she cradles a crescent moon in her lap while seated on swirling clouds. The background is a deep, star-speckled sky with flowing lines and small stars, and flowering vines climb around the base of the pillars. An open book is partially visible at the lower left and her expression is calm and contemplative.
