Description
A lighthouse-keeper in another guise — a woman in a levitating sitting lights lanterns above a balustrade, the sky burning orange. A red-haired woman in black lace bodice and stockings hangs in the air bending backward over a stone balustrade; in both hands she carries iron glowing lanterns; more little lanterns dangle on chains around her; the background a fiery orange-red sunset.
