Rank Badge with Lion
The image depicts a square Rank Badge with a lion. The lion is centered on the badge and faces the left. It has a large mane that frames its head, a long snout, and a wide mouth with teeth. Its body appears muscular with a long tail that extends to the right. The lion has a chain running along its spine. The background of the badge features a blue color with orange and yellow clouds around the lion. The lion itself is primarily orange and yellow. The bottom of the image features a row of waves or clouds. The overall design suggests a traditional or cultural motif, possibly from Tibetan or Chinese art. The artist and title of the piece is unknown.
