Black and white image of The Witch (Night Piece) by Jan van de Velde. The image depicts a woman standing on the right side, wearing a long dress and barefoot, her arms outstretched. She appears to be surrounded by a chaotic scene: multiple grotesque faces and bodies, some with wings, are on the left side. A rope or cord curves from the woman's hand to the top left. The background features dark, rolling hills, trees, and a cloudy sky. The bottom of the image has a border with Latin text written in cursive. The overall scene is dark and ominous.
