The image shows a figure standing, draped in flowing garments. The figure is positioned upright, holding a long object resembling a staff in one hand, while the other hand rests on a large wheel by their side. The figure's facial features are faintly painted with a composed expression, and they have long flowing hair accentuated by a dark circle above their head. They are dressed in a reddish-brown robe with gold trim at the sleeves and hemline. The figure stands on a patch of green with a severed head depicted at their feet on the right side. The background is a light, neutral color with scattered horizontal blue strokes.
