A colorful, symmetrical composition centers on a large face with wide, watchful eyes, surrounded by intricate patterns, vivid shapes, and smaller angelic figures. A crown-like form rises above the face, while layered designs in green, yellow, blue, red, and gold fill nearly every part of the image, creating a dense, dreamlike scene.
