The artwork depicts the larger-than-life character Gargantua dropping down projectiles from his voluminous hair. The image is a testament to Courselles' artistic prowess, capturing the essence of this fantastical scene with meticulous detail and skillful shading. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the illustration, enhancing its dramatic impact.

Rabelais was known for his witty writing style and ability to blend humor with social commentary. This particular print belongs to a private collection and has been preserved by Bridgeman Images' Holbarn Archive.
