The figure of Saturn is drawn with long hair and a beard, wearing a patterned robe and sandals. Saturn holds a scythe-like object with a curved blade in one hand and a staff with a flame-like object at the top in the other. The figure is positioned dynamically, with clothing and hair blowing to the left. The drawing is surrounded by a brown border with a decorative inner edge.
