Woodcut illustration of three robed men on a hillside. Two are looking up at a figure standing on a ledge. The figure on the ledge wears a long, billowy robe and turns toward the viewer. The figure on the left stands atop a rocky outcropping with hands clasped. A tree to his right frames a distant cityscape. A tree on the left frames a cloudy sky with winged figures. A rectangular illustration bordered by a thin line. The text above and below the illustration is in an old language, likely Italian. The page is aged with yellowed paper and brown spots. Black text is printed at the top of the page. Two columns of black text are below the illustration. A title is centered below the illustration.
