The image shows a person holding a human head. The person is standing with their left arm raised, gripping the head by its hair. Their right hand is adjusting or holding a piece of cloth near their face. The individual's facial features appear composed and serene, with a gaze directed slightly downward. The person has dark hair, partially covered by draped white cloth wrapping around their head and shoulders. They are dressed in simple, flowing white garments. Another figure is visible in the foreground, partially cropped, with grey-toned skin and a similar white garment, looking upward towards the first person. The background features a dark green rectangle bordered by an abstract design with tan and white colors.
