The woman's elegant silhouette is adorned in intricately designed robes, with a vibrant silk dress and a regal headdress adorned with intricate gold and red ornaments. Her hairstyle, featuring long, flowing locks, is a testament to the rich and time-honored Chinese beauty standards. The dragon flag, a symbol of power, strength, and good fortune in Chinese culture, is held aloft with pride and dignity.
