Description:

A figure in elaborate costume is shown in profile, facing right, standing before a bed draped in patterned curtains. The attire includes a voluminous skirt, a plumed hat, and a wand topped with a glowing star. The figure’s left hand is raised slightly, the index finger pointing upward in a gesture toward the sleeper, who remains obscured by the bed hangings.
