The Prodigal Son by William Strang: A black and white drawing of a man sitting on a rock, looking up and to the right, shirtless and wearing only a loincloth, with one leg bent in front of him and the other stretched out behind; he rests his chin on his right hand. He sits beside a pig. A tree stump stands to the right of the pig. A building and trees are visible in the background. A bare tree branch extends from the right towards the center. The man looks up, seemingly in sorrow or regret.
