A horizontally oriented print in black ink on cream paper depicts a large rabbit hanging by its hind leg against a dark wall on our left, its head resting on a stone ledge. To the right, several small rabbits graze in an open meadow beneath a bright sky filled with dense, swirling clouds. Deep, cross-hatched lines create a stark contrast between the shadowed foreground and the luminous landscape.
