"the teeth of the wind" - they come from the desert, they attack villages and fields and eat everything bald. In million-armies the flying monsters with the wind move over mountains, seas and countries. The desert grasshopper, scarcely finger-long - here represented at the lower left in an oversized contour with the help of the collage - is incalculable. Nobody knows, where she will still lead her raids in this year. In the Old Testament the grasshoppers are expression for the anger of God, the Koran call them "teeth of the wind". In the center of the picture one sees naked men fleeing into different directions: on the right a group of Greeks from old Athens, where each summer the celebration of the goddess Athene was celebrated. In addition also belonged sport contests. The winners of the run competitions and the other disciplines received as prize oil from the olive tree of the holy grove of the goddess, which was kept in splendid amphoras. At the left site the matter is around a fleeing group of two men - only dressed in a loincloth - from the hunter people of the Alfuren out of the mountain rain forest of the Indonesian archipelago Seram. In the background the Tibesti mountains of the Central Sahara are to be seen at five o'clock in the morning with ice cold weather. Clouds such as flames and smoke clouds, which pull over the pinnacles and burrs, strengthen still the threatening tendency of the picture, which alone already proceeds from the grasshopper. Even the storks and pelicans over the Tibesti mountains seem to flee before grasshopper troubles against the north.
