Visual Description

A muscular man stands in a rocky, desert-like landscape, roaring and raising a long staff topped with a pentacle-like ornament above his head. A woman lies on the ground at his feet, partially clothed, her dark hair spread on the sand and her body turned toward the viewer. Stormy rock formations and a flash of lightning appear in the background; a coin with a face is shown at the top left and the border bears a decorative gold frame.
