In the foreground, a mighty lion stands tall and proud, its powerful presence emanating strength and fearlessness. However, it is not alone in this scene. Three distinct figures emerge from different corners of our imagination – Death personified in three forms. These eerie apparitions symbolize both danger and inevitability as they encircle their prey with menacing intent.
