The image displays the elaborately decorated, gold-leafed *artesonado* (coffered) wooden ceiling of the Salón de Cortes (Hall of the Courts) within the Palau de la Generalitat in Valencia, Spain. The ceiling features dark-stained wood with extensive gilded ornamentation, comprising intricate patterns, numerous heraldic shields, carved mythical creatures (such as dragons and griffins), and stylized human and animal figures in relief panels. Supporting the lower edge of the wooden structure are ornate carved wooden corbels, some depicting busts or figures. These rest upon a series of simpler, pale stone corbels that project from the rough-hewn, light-colored stone block walls. A section of dark, paneled wooden door or wall covering is visible on the right side of the frame. No individuals are present in the scene.
