You are looking at a black-and-white image. The scene is in a wood, you will see trees at the back and tall grass on the ground that reaches the waist of an adult. Two men standing in the center of the image facing each other. They both wearing the ancient look with robes. The man on the left is taller with four eyes, holding a crystal cube. The man on the right has another head attached to his head with white hair. He is holding a book with a rope on a book cover. It looks like the man on the right is talking to the man on the left.
