The image consists of various shapes and lines forming figures and patterns. At the top is an arch-like shape enclosing a stylized face with flowing hair. Below, figures interact in a scene with curved lines creating a sense of movement. Two human-like figures are on either side, while abstract animal forms resembling a fowl or rooster are in the center. Swirling lines at the bottom suggest water or snakes, adding to the intricate and symbolic nature of the image.
