Watercolour painting of a group of mice fleeing from a fox. This is the scanned in version of the piece. Composition of the piece is a close up of the fox's head, mouth agape, as mice are crawling all over it, escaping it's maw, and fleeing from the beast. There are some mice that are looking back in a contemplative manner at the fox. Other mice are hitching a ride on the backs of other mice. There are also a few fleeing with the crowd who appear to be generally unsure and cautious in their posture
This is supposed to be a shallow allegory for society, but can really just be interpreted in whichever way the viewer feels is relevant
As for the colouring of the piece, the fox is orange, the mice are brown, and there is a light background of green for the ground and blue for the sky
