Skadi Engeln

Experience the enchanting and mysterious world of "Damenspiel 2":

In the foreground, a large white cat lies contentedly on the ground, symbolizing calmness and serenity. Behind her lies a woman, possibly the lady from "Damenspiel 1"? Her face is hidden from the viewer. The mysterious tension rises as three girls in white dresses look worriedly at her face. What has happened?

The scene takes place in a colorful flower landscape, providing a strong contrast to the serious and mysterious mood of the girls. The details of the flowers and the clothing of the figures are meticulously crafted, making the artwork both visually appealing and emotionally profound.
