The image features a man interacting with a swarm of flies. The man is dressed in a robe and hat, holding a staff and reaching out towards the flies. A dog stands beside him. In the background, there is a pastoral landscape with small figures and a structure near a tree. The etching uses cross-hatching and clean lines for texture. The color palette is monochromatic, with black ink on beige paper.
