This is a print of a hand with detailed annotations and accompanying illustrations. The hand is the central focus, with inscriptions on each finger. Two small people are on either side of the hand, both dressed in robes with round yellow halos behind their heads. The person on the left appears to shake something held up by their head, with a jar beside them. The person on the right is holding a long object connected to a wolf or dog covered in green paint, and in the other hand they hold a small bucket. Latin text is on scroll-like banners surrounding the hand. Longer blocks of text fill the spaces around the hand and figures.
