A horizontally oriented etching in black ink depicts a man writing in an open book at a wooden table. He wears a dark, wide-brimmed hat and heavy cloak. To our left, a pitcher and cup rest on the table. Light spills from a barred window at the far left, illuminating the stone interior. Dense cross-hatching and repeated, fine vertical lines create deep shadows on the wall to our right.
