Period: 1450-1500;
Geographic: Italy; Europe; Ancient Greece
Description: The head of a man is on the ground, from the top of his head to his shoulders. It is hard to identify whether this is the head of a real human, or if it is a statue. Next to it is a fox, intrigued at the head. It had its right paw raised, looking down and concentrated at the head. Weeds and grass surround them.
