The Queen of the Fishes: Plate 9

Lucien Pissarro

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a book page with a drawing of a man and a fish-like creature. The drawing is at the top of the page, above the text, and depicts a man with long hair and a beard, reaching into the water with his right arm. The man's left arm is bent at the elbow, and his left hand is near his body. The fish-like creature has long hair flowing like seaweed and appears to be rising out of the water. The creature's face is not clearly defined. The background of the drawing includes tall plants or grasses. The text below the drawing is in black ink and appears to be a story. The title "The Queen of the Fishes" is written in orange text in the top-right corner of the page. The artist's name, Lucien Pissarro, is associated with this image, specifically Plate 9. The page is yellowed and has a rough texture. The background behind the page is white.
