A vertically oriented woodcut print in black ink on light paper depicts a muscular, bearded man with a halo of radiating lines standing atop a stone tomb. He holds a long staff and raises one hand. In the foreground, an armored figure sits slumped while another head peeks over the tomb's edge. Dense black hatching creates deep shadows throughout, with smaller figures and a monogram visible in the distance and top center.
