A horizontally oriented drypoint print in black ink on light paper depicts a bearded man in a rounded cap crouching low. Facing left with downcast eyes, he extends his right leg, revealing a shoe. Behind him, dense diagonal lines suggest wood bundles, while fine hatching adds texture to his clothing and the ground. Initials mark the lower left, and a signature appears in the lower right margin.
