Description de l’image
This is a painting of a creature with long claws perched on a branch. The creature has a long, slender body covered in brownish fur with a stripe running along its back. It grips the branch with its long claws, and its elongated tail curls around beneath it. The branch appears weathered and is decorated with small green leaves.
