A vertically oriented lithograph in black ink with fine, tonal lines depicts a forest scene. A thick, gnarled tree dominates the left. In the foreground, a hare runs toward the left, pursued by a hawk with wide, outstretched wings swooping from the right. Dense, splotchy foliage covers the ground, while spindly trees fade into a light, misty background. Printed text appears in the bottom margin.
