Polyphemos or Polyphemus (Latin) is a figure from Greek mythology. He is a cyclops; son of the sea god Poseidon and the sea nymph Thoosa. Polyphemos lives on an island in a cave.
When the heros Odysseus and his crew set foot ashore, they are held captive in the cave, whose entrance is closed by a heavy rock. Every day, the cyclops eats some of the men.
The drawing is quite explicit and shows the person Polyphemos naked with his arms, chest, buttock, penis, scrotum and legs. All in all, a sexy and possibly erotic picture.
