Black and white illustration depicting a crowded scene around a large ornate fountain. The fountain has multiple tiers with water flowing from the top. People are gathered around the fountain and a structure with columns, some engaging in activities like bathing. The structure has a decorative top with figures. In the background, there are buildings and a church. The scene includes numerous human figures, some nude, others partially clothed. Text is written in Latin at the bottom of the illustration. The overall style is detailed and ornate, characteristic of old European art. The image is titled "The Fountain of Youth" by Johann Theodor de Bry.
