Visual Description

A woman stands waist-deep in a pool of water, wrapped in a richly embroidered cloak decorated with floral medallions. A soft halo of pale light surrounds her head and the background is filled with vertical green strokes that suggest reeds or a lush landscape. Lily pads and rippling reflections are visible at her feet, and the color palette favors greens, pinks and golds. The card title 'THE EMPRESS III' appears on the top border.
