Watercolor of a nude, long-haired bearded man crawling on all fours over grass beneath a dark, sweeping rocky arch.

Nebuchadnezzar

A nude, long-haired man with a flowing beard crawls on all fours across grassy ground, hands and feet splayed, before a dark, sweeping rocky backdrop. Painted in watercolor, the figure glows in warm pinks and browns against cool blue-green shadows.
