The image shows a symmetrical cross at the top with elongated, pointed edges. Below the cross is an abstract circular design reminiscent of a decorative mandala, with intricate patterns and a central floral motif. There are feather-like shapes on either side. The composition brings together religious and ornamental symbols with a focus on traditional iconography and geometric decorations.
