Aaron Converting His Staff into a Serpent

Amerikanische Grafik 1857–1868, circa anni Sessanta dell’Ottocento

The image is a drawing of a person standing. The individual has one arm raised in front of them, and the other arm is holding a staff upright. The person's facial features include a prominent nose, closed eyes, and a long beard. Their hair is wavy and flows around their face. They are dressed in loose, flowing robes that drape around their body, reaching down to their feet, leaving their toes visible. The background is minimal, with sketching around the person, including a serpent-entwined staff on the left side. The drawing is monochrome with varying shades, and there is a scribbled design in the top right corner.
