Description
Joan of Arc in a Polish midsummer night's forest, the fires of fireflies in place of stars, silver and gold leaf as the armour of words. A figure in blue armour and helmet rides a white horse covered in flakes of gold leaf; around them a dense wood of slim branching trees set alight by orange and red firefly glows, a silver-grey sky with a crescent moon.
