Black-and-white engraving of a robed woman holding a palm frond beside a dragon with open jaws and a coiled tail, among rocks and trees.

A woman in a flowing robe stands barefoot on rocky ground, holding a palm frond, while a dragon with open jaws and a coiled, scaly tail lies beside and beneath her. Dense hatching and cross-hatching render rocks, gnarled trees and drapery in this black-and-white engraving.
