Matthias Gerung - satirical print, 1520-1560
I've previously mentioned this woodcut, this version includes the floating creatures to the left. Here is a description of the print from the British Museum website..
"The clergy feasting in the jaws of a devil; the demon seated, turned to left on a papal bull, its left foot in a vessel for Holy Water, and holding a collection box in its right hand. Smaller demons preparing food on its head, flying creatures approaching with the pope and a canon."
