A vertically oriented color lithograph depicts a nude man with a medium-light skin tone in the foregrounded architectural courtyard. Viewed from behind, he holds a large vessel against his shoulder. At his feet, an overturned jar spills fruit onto a checkered floor. Receding into the background, tiered structures and a fountain rise against a blue sky. Muted green and gold tones dominate, framed by a repeating Greek key border and floral flourishes.
