Black and white drawing of a man sitting on a hillside reading a book. The man wears a hooded robe and has a long beard. He sits cross-legged with his back to the right and the book held in both hands. Beside him on the right is a hat. Behind him on the left is a flagpole with a cross on top. The background shows a medieval town or city with many buildings, including towers and steeply pitched roofs. The buildings appear to be made of brick or stone. The sky above the town is cloudy. In the bottom left corner, the date "1519" and the artist's monogram "AD" are visible.
