The image is a close-up of a stone carving on the side of a building. The carving is intricately detailed and appears to be made of a dark grey material. It depicts a figure of a man with a long beard and a crown on his head, holding a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. The figure is sitting on a branch with a dragon-like creature on its back. The creature has wings and is facing towards the right side of the image. The background is blurred, but it seems to be a part of the exterior of the building with a red and gold patterned roof. The overall style of the carving is reminiscent of ancient Chinese art.
