DescriptionThis lithograph depicts a man with a d thought cloud coming from his head. The man is in the lower right corner and faces right and away from the viewer. He has a band around his head with a feather attached to the back. To the left of the man in the bottom left corner are ink splatters. The top half of the print depicts a thought cloud with a cartoon-like rabbit standing on two legs, facing the left and holding a marionette puppet of a man to its left who wears a hat and suit and carries a case. To the left of the rabbit and puppet are simple drawings of bees and flowers. Above the rabbit’s ears, in the top right corner of the thought cloud are the words “A NEW PERSPECTIVE”. Beneath the words are curved lines that form an umbrella shape. Each lines ends at a six-point star.
