In this anthropomorphic illustration, we witness a group of determined hunters clambering through the dense foliage in pursuit of their elusive prey. The scene is filled with action and intensity as these skilled insect-chasers chase after a wounded grasshopper. The air is thick with exhaustion as both predator and prey display signs of weariness. A frantic toad joins the chase, adding to the chaotic atmosphere. Amidst all this commotion, we can't help but feel empathy for the injured frog desperately clinging onto life. Its bleeding wounds are evident, reminding us of the harsh realities that come with hunting in nature's unforgiving playground. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes apparent that there is more than meets the eye. Symbolism intertwines with reality as themes of injury and medicine emerge from within this stunning painting.

Through its masterful execution and intricate details, "Flea hunt in the virgin forest" transports us to a world where animals take center stage in their struggle for existence.
