The engraving has a direct point of view, displaying a scene with a low horizon, obscured by elements such as a figure, trees, and rocky formations. The style features detailed line work and cross-hatching for texture and depth. The color palette is monochromatic, using black ink on light paper for high contrast. The image depicts a figure with a rock next to a skull, a lion, trees, and cliffs in the background.
