The image is a detailed engraving showing three full-length figures standing in the foreground, with one kneeling figure to their right. The standing figures are wearing robes; the one on the left wears a turban, and the one in the middle has wavy hair and a beard. The third standing figure has longer hair and looks towards the kneeling person, who is engaged in working or interacting with the ground. All figures are barefoot, and the clothing appears to be flowing and layered. One of the standing figures holds a shepherd’s crook or staff. In the background, there is a pastoral scene with trees and distant figures and animals. The engraving is framed with decorative elements and Italian text is inscribed below the figures.
