This black and white image is an etching or engraving with a fantastical theme, featuring anthropomorphic characters in a chaotic scene. Central to the image is a knight dressed in armor, depicted with the head of a bird, wielding a lance while mounted on a creature that resembles a horse with a bird’s head. The knight is engaged in combat with a formidable opponent, a winged figure with talons, who seems to be falling backward. In the background, another winged creature, smaller in size, flies overhead seemingly casting a spell or attacking as it extends its arm forward, flames or magic emanating from its hand. A third bird-headed character appears atop a hill to the right, watching or preparing to join the fray. The backgrounds suggest a bleak, barren landscape. The expressions and dynamic poses of the characters give the piece a sense of intense action and drama. The print has a raw edge, indicating it may be plate-signed, which is characteristic of etchings or engravings that are traditionally printed on paper larger than the metal plate they are created on. The style of the artwork is highly detailed and reminiscent of engravings from the Renaissance or a similar period, displaying a keen attention to the texture of feathers, armor, and the tumultuous environment. It seems to draw from mythological inspiration or a reinterpretation of classic themes through an imaginative lens.

The image is an intricate and surreal etching by Max Ernst. It portrays a fantastical scene with a sense of chaotic movement and otherworldly elements. In the foreground, there is a chariot-like structure being pulled by skeletal, humanoid figures with elongated limbs and abstract, distorted features. One of these figures seems to be merging with the chariot or interacting with it in a fluid, dreamlike manner. Above this centerpiece, two bird-like creatures with human characteristics are depicted in mid-air, further enhancing the surreal quality of the image. The background elements are minimal, allowing the viewer's focus to remain on the bizarre, almost nightmarish forms and their interaction. The artwork exhibits Ernst's characteristic style, blending the grotesque with the fantastical, inviting various interpretations and evoking a strong emotional response.

The composition is dynamic, with figures in motion and flowing garments creating a sense of movement and tension. The overall mood of the piece is quite intense and chaotic, typical of battle scenes from this artistic period.

The image is a black-and-white drawing that depicts a chaotic scene involving several grotesque figures. The drawing is framed by a white border, giving it a vintage or historical appearance. The figures are engaged in what seems to be a violent confrontation or a battle. In the center of the image, there is a large, grotesque figure with a large, round head and a wide, open mouth, suggesting a scream or roar. This figure appears to be in a fighting stance, with one arm raised and the other holding a weapon that looks like a sword or a large knife. The figure is dressed in tattered clothing, which adds to the sense of chaos and disarray. To the left of this central figure, there is another grotesque character, smaller in size but equally distorted. This figure is also armed with a weapon, possibly a spear or a staff, and is in a fighting stance as well. The figure's face is contorted, suggesting anger or pain. Above these two figures, there is a third grotesque character, which appears to be flying or leaping into the scene. This figure has wings and a long, pointed beak, resembling a bird of prey. It seems to be attacking the central figure, adding to the sense of chaos and violence. The background of the image is relatively sparse, with a few scattered lines and shapes that suggest a rough, uneven terrain. The overall impression is one of chaos, violence, and grotesque imagery, with the figures' distorted features and exaggerated expressions adding to the sense of unease and discomfort.
