An etching on vertically oriented off-white paper displays black Latin text above a rustic illustration. "LIBER SECVNDVS" crowns eight lines of verse. Below, sketchy strokes and cross-hatching define a wooden barrel, flanked by a bundle on the left and a bucket and woven flask on the right. The composition balances formal calligraphy with the loose rendering of vessels in an outdoor clearing, marrying classical poetry with a quiet, shaded still life.
