A vertically oriented etching depicts a forest scene with three figures with light skin tones. On the left, Jupiter, a muscular man with goat legs, lifts a dark cloth from a reclining, nude Antiope. She sleeps on draped fabric with her head resting on her arm. At her side, a small, winged child sleeps. Centered at the bottom, capitalized text reads "JUPITER ET ANTIOPE" above lines of descriptive script.
