Description
Monsters of various shapes and sizes are gathered at the foot of a rock or cliff, facing a boy with a stick. A human-shaped figure armed with a trident and standing on the back of one of the monsters gestures toward him.
The caption reads in the original French: ‘Qu’est-ce que tu veux ?’ cria-t-il d’une voix effroyable.
