Juno Turning Callisto into a Bear
This is a detailed drawing featuring two mythological figures, animals, and a landscape. The artwork shows two figures in the foreground - one standing and holding the other by the hair, who is on the ground. The scene includes swirling clouds above, peacocks with their feathers spread, a pastoral setting with trees, hills, and a distant city, as well as a large animal near a stream. The artist has used intricate lines and cross-hatching to create depth, texture, and shadow in a baroque style composition.
