Freedom and Joy: woman releasing a bird from a cage
A kneeling woman in a long robe opens a tall wooden birdcage on a stone pedestal as a bird flies off toward the upper right. Behind her, a tree frames a wide landscape of distant hills, a small figure, and a grazing animal, all in fine line engraving.
