Panel 4 in a series of 20 panels. A large eagle is drawn in the top centre of the image, with wings spread. The head is turned to the side and slightly raised, showing a large round eye and sharp hooked beak. Wings and torso are decorated in formline style. Feet extend toward the surface of a river running through the drawing from top middle to bottom. Beneath the water is a large stylized fish with split tail, and formline designs on back and face. A long orange fish swims across the image. In the background is a dense forest of vined trees alongside the river. Covered with plexi frame.
