The left side of the image features the bold white text “BACCHAE”. The right side displays a dramatic close-up of a person's face from the nose down to the shoulders. Their lips are painted a deep, glossy crimson, and there's a slight snarl or grimace. Some of the red gloss or substance is smeared and dripping, resembling blood.
