This is a black and white illustration with a whimsical and surreal style. The central focus is a large pelican with a distinctly human-like head. The pelican is dressed in a patterned dress and wears a hat adorned with feathers. Its head is almost human, with visible eyes and a beak that blends into the facial features. The pelican is depicted with wings and feathers, emphasizing its avian nature. In the background, there are other pelicans, also with human-like features, dressed in clothing. One pelican is wearing a dress and a bow tie, while another is partially visible. The composition is crowded and chaotic, with a sense of movement and energy. The illustration is reminiscent of a cartoon or caricature, with exaggerated features and a playful tone. The background is a solid black, which makes the white figures stand out. The illustration is titled "Big Pelican, whose head was almost human."
