Brief Description
A black and white drawing of robed adults and children beneath a stylized bird on a pole
Detailed Description
This black and white artwork features a group of figures gathered in the lower-middle portion of a vertical composition. Above them, a stylized, dark ornament, resembling a bird or a flower, is depicted at the end of a thin, vertical pole. This ornament has multiple layers of dark, scalloped shapes and two flowing ribbons extending downwards. Below, a cluster of approximately five adult figures, dressed in flowing robes with dark outlines and light shading, are shown. Several adults have visible beards and distinct headwear. They are surrounded by and interact with at least four smaller children. One child is carried on an adult's back on the right, another is held close on the left, and others are nestled among the adults. The figures exhibit animated postures and appear to be smiling or laughing. The background is a plain, light-toned surface with subtle texture and minor marks.
