Egyptian Black Cat Goddess Bastet

Vertical fantasy fine-art illustration of [Bastet], an elegant anthropomorphic black cat goddess seated regally in a shadowed ancient Egyptian temple at sunset. She features sleek black fur, tall pointed ears, glowing amber-gold eyes, and a calm, majestic expression, resting one arm beside a large crescent-shaped golden ceremonial blade. She wears a flowing white linen gown with translucent drapery and geometric gold trim, adorned with lavish ancient Egyptian gold jewelry: a broad collar necklace, layered chains, arm cuffs, bracelets, dangling earrings, a forehead ornament, and a circular moon-like headpiece. Behind her head radiates a huge glowing golden sun disk halo with fine rays and celestial arcs, casting warm amber backlight against dark indigo temple curtains and stone pillars. Exactly six feline figures are present: the central goddess, a tall seated black cat silhouette on the far left, a small black cat crouched near the left of the throne, a small black cat seated to her right, a tall seated black cat silhouette on the far right, and a small black cat on the lower step in front. Two hanging gold-and-feather talismans dangle from the upper left and right temple frame. Surrounding the throne are bronze censers emitting faint smoke and embers, ornate vases, white lilies, small chalices, and gold chains. In the open background, soft dusk haze reveals distant desert dunes and pyramids under a twilight sky. Painterly fantasy style with rich indigo shadows, burnished gold highlights, intricate metalwork, and a sacred mystical atmosphere.
