Visual Description

A multigenerational group gathers around a stone bench: smiling children and adults wear round medallions embossed with pentacle symbols while an elderly woman steadies a seated figure with a white wolf-like mask who appears tearful. The setting combines a timber-walled building and a bamboo-forested background, with warm reds and deep blues in traditional clothing and stitched borders. Several people converse and laugh in the foreground, suggesting a communal celebration or family assembly.
