This is a black and white sketch that depicts a scene with an alligator and a squirrel. The alligator is mostly submerged in water, with only its head, part of its back, and tail visible. It seems to be resting calmly on the water's edge, with an open, relaxed mouth and a benign expression. The tail creates ripples in the water. On the bank to the left, a squirrel is depicted mid-action, with its body leaning forward, mouth open, and tail extended behind. The squirrel appears to be either startled or aggressive, evident by its posture as if it's confronting the alligator or hastily reacting to the presence of the alligator. The bank is lined with grass, leaves, and a couple of flowers on tall stems, suggesting a natural, outdoor setting. The image is signed by the artist in the bottom right corner. There appears to be some numeric notation on the top left corner, but it's not fully clear what it represents.

The image depicts an elaborate pencil drawing of a natural scene. The centerpiece is a large alligator or crocodile, rendered in intricate detail with its scaly skin and distinctive features. The reptile is partially submerged in a body of water, surrounded by lush vegetation and other wildlife, such as a bird in flight. The overall composition has a dreamlike, almost surreal quality, with the precise, detailed drawing style contrasting with the fantastical elements. The artist's signature, "G. Toffoletto", appears at the bottom of the image.
