A black and white etching depicts a man sitting at a table with his head down. Two demons are flying behind him, one on the left with large dark wings. The man wears a white shirt with billowy sleeves and leans over the table with one arm on top of a sheet of paper. His head is down and details of his face are not visible. The demon on the left has its body facing right, head turned to the viewer, and mouth open. The demon on the right faces left with its mouth open. The background of the etching shows dark clouds. The etching is mounted on a piece of aged off-white paper with rough edges. The etching itself has a thin white border around it. Small illegible text appears at the bottom center and top right corner of the etching.
