Description de l’image
The image depicts a person standing, facing slightly to the right. They have long blonde hair, facial features with arched eyebrows and a faint smile. They are wearing a traditional, ornate robe with a light blue outer layer and a white inner gown with black dots. A halo-like circle is around their head. The person holds a green palm frond in one hand and a small dog is standing on its hind legs, with its front paws on the person's robe. The background is simple with earthy tones and the ground is a muted green.
