It depicts Nikola Orsinov - who is a mannequins with various shades of skin stapled onto them, and is wearing a red top hat and blazer which are also made of skin - as well as black shorts, a bright pink bow tie and fish net tights. They’re stepping towards the viewer and bowing slightly with a wide grin, while holding a whip made of skin behind their back. The background has 2 rows of mannequins and an organ - as well as a large pair of black arms with a glowing yellow outline that are handing on either side of Nikola. There is a red and yellow border around them with yellow diamonds running up both sides and a set of large golden signs at the top which say “THE CIRCUS OF THE OTHER PRESENTS: THE UNKNOWING.” At the bottom border there is golden text that says. “-7.8.2017-” “GREAT YARMOUTH.” In the bottom left and right corners there are circular windows with a side profile of Breekon and Hope along with half of a coffin each.
