Okay, the user wants me to create alt-text for a stamp image. Let me look at the image carefully. The stamp is from Liechtenstein, 1983, with "Hildegard von Bingen" at the top. There's a blue "80" in the corner, which is the denomination. The main image shows a woman in a blue and brown robe, holding a staff or something, sitting on a chair. The word "EUROPA" is on the right side. At the bottom, it says "FÜRSTENTUM LIECHTENSTEIN" and the names "Gerhard Glosler" and "Courvoisier" with the year 1983. I need to focus on the key elements for accessibility. The main subject is Hildegard von Bingen, a historical figure. The stamp's country, year, and denomination are important. The "EUROPA" text indicates it's part of a European series. The artist's name and the printer's name might be less critical but should be included for completeness. The visual elements: the woman in a nun's habit, holding a staff, sitting. The colors are blue, brown, and beige. The design has a circular background. I should structure the alt-text to mention the key parts: the person, the country, the year, the denomination, and the "EUROPA" label. Keep it concise but descriptive. Avoid unnecessary details. Check for any symbols, like the CE logo in the top right. The user said to focus on key visual elements, so the CE logo might be part of the design but maybe not essential. The main points are Hildegard von Bingen, the 80 denomination, the country name, the year, and the Europa series. Let me draft: "Liechtenstein 1983 postage stamp featuring Hildegard von Bingen in a blue and brown nun's habit holding a staff, with '80' denomination, 'EUROPA' text, and 'FÜRSTENTUM LIECHTENSTEIN' at bottom." That covers the main elements. Check if all necessary parts are included. The artist and printer names might be too detailed for alt-text, but the user said to include key elements. The example in the problem statement includes "Gerhard Glosler" and "Courvoisier" in the image, but maybe they're not crucial for the alt-text. The user's instruction says "key visual elements," so perhaps the artist and printer are secondary. The main focus is the person, the country, year, denomination, and the Europa label. The alt-text should be concise, so maybe omit the artist and printer. Let me check the image again. The bottom has "FÜRSTENTUM LIECHTENSTEIN" in large letters, then "Gerhard Glosler" and "1983" and "Courvoisier". The year is already mentioned as 1983, so including it once is enough. The artist and printer might not be necessary for accessibility, but the user might want them. The problem says "key visual elements," so perhaps the main text is the country name, the year, the person, and the denomination. The "EUROPA" is important as it's a series. The CE logo is a symbol, but maybe not critical. The alt-text should be as per the example given in the problem. The user's example in the problem statement for the image includes "80" as the denomination, "Hildegard v Bingen" as the name, "EUROPA" on the side, and the country name. So the alt-text should include all that. Let me make sure to include the key parts without being too wordy. The final alt-text should be: "Liechtenstein 1983 postage stamp of Hildegard von Bingen in a blue and brown nun's habit holding a staff, with '80' denomination, 'EUROPA' text, and 'FÜRSTENTUM LIECHTENSTEIN' at bottom." That's concise and covers the main elements. Check if "v" in "Hildegard v Bingen" should be "von" but the stamp says "v" so it's okay. The user's example in the image shows "HILDEGARD V BINGEN" so it's "v" as in "von" but written as "V". So in the alt-text, it's "Hildegard von Bingen" or "Hildegard v Bingen"? The stamp says "V" so maybe "Hildegard v Bingen" but typically it's "von". However, the alt-text should reflect what's on the stamp. The stamp says "HILDEGARD V BINGEN" so the alt-text should use "v" as Country: Liechtenstein Issue Date: 1983
