This is a black and white illustration reminiscent of ancient Egyptian or hieroglyphic art. The central focus is a slender, stylized woman with a tall, elaborate headdress. She is depicted in profile, facing left, and appears to be reaching towards a large, coiled serpent. The serpent's body is patterned with scales and curves around the woman, forming an arc above her. Below the woman and serpent is a rectangular block of text that reads “HEPIT·NAGA·ATOSIS”. The text is in capital letters and appears to be a title or inscription. Above and to the sides of the woman and serpent is a geometric background pattern consisting of intersecting lines and diagonal cross-hatching. Below the text block is a decorative flourish of swirling lines and curves. The overall style is simple and graphic, with bold lines and minimal shading. The image is titled “THE WOMAN AND THE SERPENT” below the illustration.
