Description
The Slavic Światowid in the form of a white shaggy guardian dog; a young woman in moonlit blue stands under its muzzle as if under the dome of the sky. Against a deep navy ground with a band of silver cloud and a single star sits a colossal white-pink luminous dog with long, undulating fur, open jaws and honey-coloured eyes. At its paws, as if beneath the belly of a god, stands a small figure of a young woman in a long navy dress and knee-high boots; her skin is frost-blue. Below them a narrow strip of cool steel-grey floor.
