Visual Description

Three women in diaphanous white robes stand in a misty clearing, their arms raised as they clink three ornate goblets together. Above them a circular opening framed by vines and leaves displays the Roman numeral III. Grapes and foliage fringe the upper scene, and at the bottom there is a scroll-like area bearing Cyrillic script (Изобилие) alongside small astrological or alchemical glyphs and the text TAROSHOP.RU. The palette is muted and dreamlike, with a soft glow around the figures.
