caption: The image shows a black and white painting of a man laying in the water, with a bird perched on his shoulder. The man appears to be in a state of distress, with his head bowed and his hands clasped together in a gesture of despair. The bird is looking up at him, its wings spread wide and its beak open as if it is about to take flight. The background is a deep blue, with stars twinkling in the night sky.
