About this work
A standing woman holding a heart with the 'restlessness' of a clockwork mechanism in her right hand. In her left hand, a rattle, the instrument of the rattle-man or door-keeper who had to make rounds through the city at set times. To the left, a squirrel. Two lines of Latin text below the image. The print is part of an album.
