The Winged Fiend against the Flames
A dark figure extends two enormous wings across a turbulent red and violet sky. A wheel-like form enters the foreground at the left. Severn connects the fiery atmosphere with the winged driver described in Corelli’s fantasy, concentrating the scene on the fiend’s silhouette.
