This is a black and white woodcut illustration of a lion lying down. The lion is depicted in profile, with its head turned slightly towards the viewer. It has a full, flowing mane that frames its face and extends down its chest. The lion's body is muscular and well-defined, with visible ribs and a long tail. It is lying on a slightly elevated, rocky ground. The style of the illustration is reminiscent of medieval or Renaissance woodcuts, with detailed linework and a focus on anatomical accuracy. The image is framed by a simple rectangular border.
