A vertically oriented etching in dense black-inked fine lines depicts a gnarled stone monument. Three crucified figures with light skin tones crown a tall column textured with intertwining motifs. Christ hangs from the central, largest cross, flanked by two smaller crucified figures. Intricate carvings of clustered people sit beneath them on a decorative platform. Bold, serif text at the bottom reads, "Calvaire du Seizième Siècle."
