What is in this image? Describe it as if you were explaining it to someone from the 15th century.
You would see a drawing depicting four curious creatures, which, by their features, might remind you of lepus, or the hares and rabbits, familiar to your time. Each one stands upright on two legs, much like a man might, and they possess exaggerated large ears, similar to those of a hare. Their faces are marked with large, round eyes and peculiar expressions, varying from surprised to worried, which is quite unlike the natural aspect of any beast in the forest.Two of these creatures—one at the far left and another second from the right—hold a striped ball resembling a melon in size and pattern. Their forms are simple, lacking the detail of fur or other finer aspects one might observe in nature, giving them an appearance akin to carvings or dolls made from wood.These creatures are unlike anything existing in nature and are more befitting of a jester''s tale or a fanciful story designed for amusement or moral teaching, akin to the works of Aesop that you might be familiar with. They are rendered in stark black and white, lacking the vibrancy of life, but compelling in their whimsical and playful demeanor.
