This is a drawing of a kneeling figure looking upwards towards a winged figure. The composition is vertically divided with a central character on bended knees, arms outstretched to the right, receiving something from an angelic figure resting on a cloud. Below, three figures rest and are slumped with weary expressions. A landscape with a city is faintly sketched in the background. The line work and shading in this drawing create depth and emotion, with attention to textures of clothing and facial expressions.
