An engraving depicts a bearded man with a light skin tone standing beside a cannon. Facing right, he holds a smoking pole and rests his left hand on the breech. He wears a feathered cap and a buttoned jacket over elaborate, slashed breeches. To our right, the cannon sits on a wheeled wooden carriage. Three cannonballs and a wooden chest rest in the foreground before a background of rolling, hatched hills under a swirling sky.
