Cleveland Museum of Art

A female figure stands on a mountain. The figure has 4 arms and holds weapons in 3 of them. The figure has a halo around it and is orange in color. The figure appears to be surrounded by 2 black attendants on either side. There appear to be dead bodies around the base of the mountain. There are trees on either side and behind the figure. There are birds flying around in the sky. The background of the sky appears to be dark with white clouds. There appears to be a red border around the image. The artwork appears to have been done on a rough texture surface such as paper.
