An etching in a horizontal orientation uses dense hatching and deep shadows to depict several people. In the foreground, a woman with a light skin tone pulls a child with a light skin tone toward our right. Behind them, two crouching men with light skin tones look on; one points toward a distant hill crowded with small figures. The number 44 and the text "Yo lo vi." appear at the top and bottom.
