A horizontally oriented engraving depicts people with light skin tones in a crowded classical setting. Centered on a pedestal, a nude figure holds a crescent moon and a long torch. Left, a bearded man kneels on a stone block with a vessel. In the foreground, figures and a dog recline near a large basin. Right, nude statues stand on pedestals while a crowd gathers below, including a man riding a horse. Columns frame the background.
