The image is a woodcut illustration divided into two panels, each depicting a scene with indigenous people and Europeans. The top panel, titled "Advent of Friday," shows a chaotic scene with several indigenous people running and attacking. Some are raising their arms, others are shooting arrows at a fallen European figure lying on the ground. In the background, there's a small building and a group of people standing on a hill. A fire is burning in the distance. The bottom panel, titled "Arrival of Savages with Christian Prisoner," depicts a group of indigenous people arriving in canoes. They are carrying a captive European, and there's a struggle happening on the shore. Some indigenous people are raising weapons, while the Europeans are attempting to defend themselves. A fire is burning on a cliff in the background, and a small building is visible on the right side. The style is reminiscent of early woodcut illustrations, with bold lines and limited detail.
