Athena Pouring a Drink for Hercules

The figure on the left is dressed in a simple garment, tied around the waist, and appears barefoot, leaning slightly with interest toward the pouring jug. The figure on the right wears a more elaborate, patterned robe with ornate detailing and holds a long staff. The drawing is executed in fine lines on a textured paper.
