Location
Not on view
A horizontally oriented ink drawing with red-brown wash and white highlights is crowded with people with light skin tones. At the center, Juno steps from a peacock-drawn chariot, reaching toward a seated man on our left. Another man sleeps beneath her feet, while a figure on our right lies face down, pouring water. Top left, an owl perches in a tree. Fine linework and wash define the classically rendered, nude figures.
