A rectangular, vertically oriented painting is depicted, mounted on a plain, light-colored wall
A rectangular, vertically oriented painting is depicted, mounted on a plain, light-colored wall. The artwork features a bust-length human figure with dark skin, facing forward, set against a solid red background. The figure wears a headdress composed of green, pointed fronds radiating from behind the head. A large moth, exhibiting brown, beige, and grey wings with prominent red, white, and yellow concentric ocelli (eyespots), covers the figure's eyes and upper face, functioning as a mask. A necklace of white cowrie shells is worn around the neck. The figure's shoulders and upper chest are covered by a textured, golden-yellow garment made of numerous layered, rectangular elements, resembling raffia or straw. The artist's signature, "M. Chudia," is visible in white in the lower right corner of the painting. Below the painting, the top edge of a light-colored cabinet or furniture piece is partially visible, featuring a small, dark-colored handle. Reflections from an external light source are present on the upper surface of the painting. The image provides no discernible information regarding its specific location within Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.
