Black and white drawing of Jason and the Dragon by Salvator Rosa. The image shows a man wearing a hat, a long-sleeved shirt, pants and boots. He holds a sword in one hand and grasps the snout of a dragon with the other. The man appears to have curly hair. The dragon has a long, curved tail and two horns on its head, with its mouth open as if roaring. The man and dragon are on the ground, with the man on top. The man and dragon are surrounded by trees and bushes. In the background, there are more trees and foliage. The overall scene appears to be a depiction of a mythological or biblical story.
