According to Freud, the unicycle and toadstool-shaped clouds would represent the manifest content of Andrea's dream.

He considered that in studying dreams he could better understand the unconscious mind of humans. For him, the manifested content of a dream is the part that we remember after we wake up. The other concept is the latent part, that stays in the unconscious mind because he can't remember it.
