A horizontally oriented engraved copper plate in reddish tones depicts several figures sprawled in a landscape. In the center, three men lie beneath a tree: one on his stomach, one leaning against the trunk, and one on his back. To the upper left, a figure emerges from a small structure. In the foreground, a pig with a knife in its side walks past. Mirrored text fills two columns at the bottom.
