Los che sorregge il sole

William Blake, probabilmente circa 1793

The image is an abstract pencil sketch of a person standing with legs wide apart and arms raised overhead. The person is holding a circular or crescent-shaped object above their head. The facial features are rough with large, prominent eyes and a focused expression. The hair is depicted with lines radiating outward. The person appears unclothed, with sketch lines hinting at body contours. The background is filled with swirling, zigzag lines, possibly indicating movement or energy.
