This is a circular print depicting a man standing between two shield-shaped objects, one decorated with a rabbit and the other with a person's head. The man in the center is covered in short, wavy fur. Only his face and feet are bare. He has a curly beard and curly hair adorned with a crown of leafy twigs. His arms are stretched out to either side, where he holds the edges of the two shields, which appear to be balanced on rocky ledges. The left shield depicts a rabbit in mid-leap, facing the right. The other side shows a person in profile, facing the left. They are wearing a high-necked garment and have short, curly hair tied up with a cloth. The scene is enclosed within a circular border.
