Drawing
Physical description
Grey pencil drawing on horizontal rectangular sheet of ivory paper of two men and two birdlike creatures. A human figure stands splayed with his back to us. Two birdlike creatures are attacking his back and there are four small circles on his back that might be from earlier attacks. A snake is floating horizontally between his legs with its tail wrapped around his left leg. Just under his left armpit is a strange striped creature with a long tail, four legs and two thin wings. To the right of the person stands a man facing left with his arms in front. This man has his hair cut in a tonsure. Both men appear to be naked.
