Description:

A female figure with a radiant glow around her head is leaning on a balcony floating in the night sky, supported by clouds. She holds what looks like a torchlight in her hand as bats flutter beneath her and a castle can be seen in the background.

The caption reads in the original French: L’étoile du soir.
