There are three separate panels of etchings. The top panel depicts a nude cherubic figure with distinct facial features and curly hair, holding a large hammer. The middle panel shows an adult figure walking with a bundle tied to a stick over the shoulder. The bottom panel shows an older person hunched over with a staff. Each panel features a figure in a different setting and role.
