Visual Description
A medieval knight in polished armor rides a pale horse along a watery shore, holding a chalice gently in his hands. A small crab-like creature hovers near the cup and a soft halo of light crowns the knight's helmet. The image is rendered in muted monochrome with subtle grain, the sea stretching into the background. At the bottom a parchment strip shows a Cyrillic title and a shop watermark.
