An Egyptian Scene of Flogging
A standing man raises a whip over a kneeling man among palms and tall reeds. A broad vessel lies near the kneeling figure, and the low horizontal composition concentrates attention on the threatening gesture. This Egyptian-style vignette appears within the book’s extended discussion of occult philosophy and planetary interpretation.
