Mythological scene with Perseus and the head of Medusa. The nude, muscular figure of Perseus holds a sword and looks down onto the decapitated head of Medusa which rests on a tree stump. On the ground are two rabbits, a helmet, two lizards, grass, a sheath and flowers. In the background are ivy and the gnarled trunks and roots of a dense woodland. Engraved in fine detail with extensive cross hatching
