Figure descriptions
A boy and a girl embrace while prancing in a woodland clearing. The children are topless
and wear skirts composed of leaves. Both
children hold quivers on their backs; the straps are slung diagonally over their shoulders
and chests. The child on the left holds
an enlarged bunch of flowers in the air. The child on the right holds a bow. Arrows
are visible in the second child’s quiver. There
are tree roots in the foreground and large trees in the distance. The branches form
a canopy over the children. Full-page illustration.
