The striking central figure is a beautiful young woman with long, golden locks, regally seated on a black throne. Her serene expression contrasts sharply with the chaos unfolding around her.

The man on the left, dressed in a modern fur coat and brandishing a pistol, seems determined to harm the woman. His posture is tense, his gaze unwavering.
