Earth-Bound Evil Spirits: Three Grotesque Heads
Three disembodied heads combine human profiles with sharply extended features, pointed hair and flame-like tufts. A large upper head dominates two smaller faces turned towards one another below. The printed caption identifies Evil Spirits, Earth Bound. The close grouping makes differences of expression and silhouette the central subject of this historical spirit illustration.
