This is a black and white illustration with a rustic, woodcut style. The scene depicts a transformation taking place in a natural setting. On the left, a figure is in the process of turning into a cedar tree. The lower portion of the figure is already fully transformed into the dense, bushy foliage of a tree, while the upper portion still retains a human-like form. To the right of the transforming figure stands another figure, presumably the one causing the transformation. This figure is depicted in a simplified, almost stick-figure style, with a feathered headdress and a skirt-like garment. They are extending their arm towards the transforming figure, as if enacting a magical gesture. Above them, a small cat is depicted in silhouette, seemingly observing the scene. The background consists of horizontal lines representing the sky and some sparse, twiggy trees. The ground is covered with simple grass-like strokes. The image is framed by a decorative border with a zig-zag pattern. Below the image, the caption reads: "GLOOSKAP TURNING A MAN INTO A CEDAR-TREE."
