The drawing depicts a nude baby with short curly hair flying through the air. The baby's right leg is bent at the knee and pointed to the left, while the left leg is pointed to the right. The right arm is bent at the elbow and appears to be pulling back, and the left arm is extended. The baby's head is tilted slightly to the right and looking forward. The background is a light-brown color with darker brown spots and marks. A small stamp with a lion and text is in the bottom-right corner. The image is titled "Flying Cupid" and was created by Annibale Carracci.
