the illustration depicts a playful scene blending classical mythology with a whimsical, almost art nouveau style.  a nude female figure, clearly identifiable as medusa with her iconic snake hair, is perched atop a partially submerged statue of a bearded male figure, possibly poseidon or neptune.  the setting appears to be a dark alcove or niche within a classical structure, framed by an archway. the overall color palette is muted, using shades of beige, brown, and cream, lending a vintage or antique feel.  the style of the drawing is detailed yet somewhat loose, with a focus on creating a dreamy and slightly surreal atmosphere.  the medusa’s expression is coy and amused, suggesting a mischievous interaction with the statue.
