Caricature of a Bird-Headed Figure Over a Reclining Man
A brown, bird-like creature wearing a black hat leans with a long beak over a reclining, bare-chested man in a hand-coloured lithograph. Framed by a double border, the scene carries lettering reading "Dead House" and "Art thou dead friend?", with a crate marked in small print beside them.
