Studies of a Lion's Head and Paw, an Owl, Etc.
The artist has instilled a sense of vitality in the lioness, suggesting that he may have drawn this sketch while she was still alive. In addition to showing half her head, he also included views of the undersides of her paw as well as an image of an owl.
