Black and white etching of a chaotic scene. A large creature with wings and tentacles dominates the top center. The creature has a large head with a long snout and sharp teeth. It holds a chain in one hand. Demons and monsters of various types fill the scene. Some have wings, others have horns or tails. A man with a halo is visible on the right side. He appears to be defending himself. A ruined landscape with crumbling buildings and trees fills the background. The sky is dark with clouds. Text is written in Latin at the bottom, with a coat of arms in the center.
