About this work

A line drawing in a circular frame shows a bearded winged figure in flight, holding a staff with a coiled ornament over his shoulder and wearing a winged cap and winged sandals. The figure wears a pleated garment and a satchel-like pouch with a patterned panel, set against a few wavy lines suggesting clouds. The print is attributed to Alexis Louis Pierre Housselin and dated 1844-1861.
