Visual Description

A large, cloaked male figure sits on a throne-like seat carved from organic shapes, holding a long staff in his right hand. Two young, nude women kneel on the stone steps before him, one on each side, with a shallow basin between them. Above the throne a circular opening in the cave ceiling lets light and trickling water fall into the space. The scene is set in a dim, cavernous interior with draped fabrics, carved motifs and a skull partially visible at the left.
