Le Cerf (The Stag)
Drawn summer or fall 1966 by Leonor Fini
Not a dream. Fini had a brief intense affair with a married man. She wrote up fantasies about their clandestine encounters, and repeatedly drew him as a stag making love to her. Her lack of sharp boundaries between human and animal are notable in all her work; more evidence she was a furry long before the term existed.
