This is a print of a creature with the body of a lion and the wings of an eagle, depicted within a circular frame. The creature has a lion's face, mane, and muscular forepaws, with the large, intricately designed wings extending from its back. A flowing ribbon entwines the legs of the creature, and it has a halo around its head. It is in profile, facing the left. The lower portion of the print includes the initials "M + S."
