This image shows a shadowy figure with bat-like wings and clawed hands. It’s hunched over, holding what looks like a small, curled-up animal or creature in one hand. The background is dark and fuzzy, making the figure stand out even more. The artist used a mix of smooth and rough lines to create a creepy, dreamy feel. The caption below hints at something sinister—it says, *"This is the devil, carrying under its two wings the seven capital sins."* Next, check out lithography to see how this print was made.
