Visual Description
A young figure in a red turban and vest stands at the left foreground, reaching toward a cluster of seven ornate golden cups that hover above a dark, layered rocky landscape. Each cup is shaped like an intricately decorated lamp and is arranged at different heights against teal-blue stone formations. Pearls, scattered coins and small orange fruits lie among the rocks beneath the floating cups, and a beaded garland winds through the scene. A white decorative border frames the image and the caption 'Seven of Cups' appears in cursive at the bottom.
