Period: 1850-1900;
Geographic: United Kingdom; Ancient Greece; London
Description: A fox is lying on the ground, looking wet, tired and in pain. Its ears are pushed backwards, and its facial expression shows that it is in pain. Many small flies are flying around and resting on the fox. A hedgehog peaks from behind the tall grass and looks down at the fox. The fox meats his gaze.
