Stately Raven

All Resolutions

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately Raven of the saintly days of yore.

Description:

A man in a dressing gown stands beside a window, one hand on the open shutter and the other touching his chin. His expression suggests fear or anxiety as he watches a bird with outstretched wings leap onto the floor in front of him. Draped curtains and an armchair in the background complement the scene.
