Etching of a robed man on a rocky shore watching a bear and winged beasts fighting in turbulent waves, with a lion-like beast at right.

The Vision of Daniel: beasts and a robed figure at sea

A robed figure with billowing cloak stands on a rocky shore at left, watching fierce beasts in a churning sea. A bear and winged creatures, one with eagle-like wings, claw and bite at one another, while a lion-like beast lies at right amid foam and rock.
