The art captures a moment where Minecco Aniello, depicted as a finely dressed medieval figure with vibrant attire enhanced by feathers and fur, approaches a secretive gathering of magicians. These magicians, cloaked in dark, solemn robes, exude an air of mystery and ancient wisdom.Goble's use of watercolor highlights the contrast between the vivid colors of Aniello's costume and the subdued tones of the magicians and their surroundings. The setting, a crumbling stone courtyard adorned with weathered architectural details, hints at the historical depth of the narrative. A woman appears in the background, peering curiously down from a balcony, adding another layer of enigma to the scene.The interaction among the characters suggests a story of consultation or negotiation, possibly seeking knowledge or power from the arcane figures before him.
