This is a painting of a celestial scene depicting a chariot drawn by a two-headed dragon. The dragon has green scales and outstretched wings, pulling the chariot against a cloudy backdrop. In the chariot sits a figure in robes holding a sickle and a sheaf of wheat. The chariot has an ornate wheel. The composition uses flowing lines and the background is cloudy.
