The image depicts a fantasy artwork of Medusa, the Gorgon from
Greek mythology. She is shown from behind, with her long
serpentine hair and face turned to one side. Her expression is thoughtful or contemplative as she gazes off into the distance. Medusa is often portrayed in art as
a monstrous creature with living venomous snakes in place of hair, though in this image her hair seems more like a serpentine form rather than actual snakes. The background suggests
an ancient setting with classical architecture, adding to the mythical atmosphere.
