The second picture shows the head of a horned animal. We could read it as a totem, and maybe even lean toward the Freudian notion that it represents the father.
There are many horned gods and deified stags in mythology and folklore. There is, for example, the Sumerian water-god Enki, “The Great Stag.” Jung identified the stag as a symbol of Christ, and of the alchemical Mercury. All of which may only mean that it’s a potent image; but it is usually tagged as male, which may be significant after that foundling in the first image.
There’s also a sun, and a mound, or hill. We can’t tell if the sun is rising or setting.
I showed these drawings to the cartoonist Mark Newgarden; and this one reminded him of a cartoon album from 1931, The Stag at Eve. The resemblance is probably coincidental, but I can’t help but wonder if the other pictures have cartoon counterparts as well.
