In the form of a classical "Tronie" portrait, Mystic portrays Khidr, who is described in various ancient wisdom traditions as a messenger, prophet, slave or angel who guards the sea, teaches secret knowledge and aids those in distress. Through the darkness behind him, is the faint suggestion of a body of water for which he stands as "sovereign of the seas".
