Visual Description

A crowned woman sits on a pale throne draped in a long peach gown, holding a tall cup painted with large black circles. She has feather-like wings behind her and a child in a green-striped dress on her lap; the woman's hand rests protectively on the child's shoulder. The background is wash-like and watery with soft blues and greens, and floral motifs are faintly overlayed on the skirt. The scene feels intimate and calm, focused on the relationship between the seated figure, the cup, and the child.
