Eve

The drawing depicts a nude woman with long wavy hair, standing in front of a tree. The woman's body faces slightly to the left; her head is turned to the left as well. Her left arm is across her chest and her right hand rests on her groin. A tree trunk is behind her on the right and a tangle of roots and branches is at her feet on the left. A snake-like creature peers out from among the roots on the left. A cherub sits on a cloud in the top-left corner, shooting an arrow towards the woman. The background consists of a cloudy sky with more clouds and small creatures floating on it. The entire image is in shades of gray. The image is signed "D.H." at the bottom.
