Visual Description

A windblown young woman walks away from the viewer across a grassy field; her tattered, polka-dotted dress is lifted by the breeze, partially exposing her buttocks. Dark, spiky trees or cypresses rise in the distance beneath a warm yellow sky, and two butterflies flutter nearby, one in the upper left and one near the lower right. A single pale hand reaches up from the left foreground toward the woman as if grasping, while the foreground shows waving grasses and small scattered flowers. The card is bordered in black with a blue inner frame and displays a blue triangle with the number 5 at the top left, the words 'AIR LUFT AIR AIRE' at the top right and 'ARIA' at the bottom left.
