An etching depicts a profile portrait of Erasmus of Rotterdam facing right, rendered with dense hatching. He wears a dark, folded cap and a fur-lined garment. Latin text spans the top border. Below, a small bust of a bearded man rests on a pedestal inscribed "MARCK STAIN" amidst German text. Sharp black ink lines define his aged features and clothing against the textured, cream-colored paper.
