Object description
In the background, against the backdrop of the sky and clouds, an eagle with outstretched wings is depicted. The bird is shown facing to the left. Its gaze is directed towards a young naked youth seated on it. The man holds onto the bird's neck with his left hand while his right hand is raised upwards. Behind them, a billowing red drape is shown, with one end draped over the man's left leg.
