Visual Description
A young woman in a red patterned dress kneels at the water's edge, cradling a small white animal in her arms and looking upward. A large, luminous eight-pointed star dominates the turquoise sky, surrounded by several smaller stars with circular halos. Tall dark pine trees rise around a meadow of colorful wildflowers behind her, and rippling water laps at her feet. The card border shows the Roman numeral "XVII" at the top and the title "The Star" at the bottom.
