The image shows a seated, nude male figure leaning against a tree with his entire body visible. His left arm rests on his forehead, and his legs are extended forward. The figure has wavy hair, which frames his face, and his facial features suggest a contemplative or resting expression. A small, winged figure is shown hovering above him with one arm stretched forward. An arrow is depicted piercing the seated man's side. The surroundings include lightly sketched foliage and a tree trunk behind the man, contributing to a natural setting. The background features clouds. The image appears to be a detailed engraving or drawing, with text and numbers written in the margins of the sheet.
