- Abstract
- en_US A Great Being, in the form of a woodpecker, frees a lion from a bone caught in his throat. They encounter each other later, when the woodpecker is hungry and the lion has just made a kill. The lion dismisses the woodpecker. The latter will not, however, get revenge, as he tells a sky fairy. He explains that He helped the lion in order to end his pain, not to gain a reward. The woodpecker adds that he counts as friends everyone he meets. The special feature of the art of this series seems to lie in the golden lines used to outline the portions of a given picture.
