A vertically oriented etching on off-white paper depicts three nude men with light skin tones. On our right, St. Sebastian leans against a tree with hands behind his back and a halo behind his head. In the center, a muscular man stands with his back toward us, manipulating a large bow. Furthest left, a third man is partially visible. Fine hatching creates shadows throughout, and handwritten text appears below.
