The 'monsters' in this etching are bats and owls, flying around the sleeper in his dream
„I tell you that I have nothing more to wish for. They were extremely pleased with my pictures, and expressed great satisfaction not only the King, but the Prince as well. Neither I nor my works deserve such recognition.“
