More InformationLike HMF 1425, this appears to have been drawn over an earlier image. The two figures are built up of various elements which feature in earlier drawings, though the head of the figure on the right is an invention which Moore simplified and strengthened in Spanish Prisoner 1939 (HMF 1464).
