A Whirling Dervish illustration design typically features a lone figure dressed in traditional white robes and a tall brown hat, spinning in a trance-like state with their arms open and hands pointing towards the sky. The illustration may also depict the dervish surrounded by a swirling vortex of energy, with the background consisting of intricate geometric patterns and Islamic motifs. The overall design aims to convey the intense spiritual and physical devotion of the dervish, as well as the ethereal, otherworldly atmosphere of the whirling ritual. The color palette is often limited to black and white, with the only color being the brown of the hat and in some cases, the red of the prayer beads that the Dervishes hold during the ceremony.
