Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum

Two figures depicted in outline. At left, a man with some traits of a satyr (long curling beard) or devil (curled tail and pointed genitalia) chases a nude woman at right, grabbing her rear end. The woman runs from the man but turns back to face him, reaching her hand towards his face. Her hair twirls in ornamental spirals and zigzags.
