This image shows an elderly man seated or crouching while leaning over a baby. The man has a white beard and is slightly balding. He is focused on the child, and is draped in fabric. The baby is mostly unclothed and is being held in the man's arms. In the background, there is textured foliage and possibly an animal with horns in the upper left corner. The etching features detailed line work and crosshatching throughout.
