Descripción de la imagen
The image shows the upper three-quarters of a person standing, with their torso, left leg, and right leg partially hidden behind draped fabric. The person is upright, with their right arm raised and their left arm holding a staff. Their face has defined features within a stylized halo of red and yellow stripes. They have long, wavy hair, a layered garment, and a fur mantle. At their feet is a small goat. The background features an elaborate decorative frame with floral motifs, a blue, red, and gold border, and stylized grass and flowers. Above the figure are smaller figures within a circle, each with a halo. There is decorative text at the bottom, framed by floral elements.
