This is a black and white woodcut illustration depicting a hermit in a detailed, somewhat archaic style. The central figure is a man, presumably the hermit, depicted in profile. He is hunched over, with a long, flowing beard and hair. He is draped in a cloak or robe that covers much of his body, and he leans on a long, curved staff. His posture suggests age and perhaps weariness. Below the figure, there are stylized plants and foliage, adding to the natural setting. Beneath the illustration is a block of text in an old-fashioned font, likely a caption or verse related to the image. The text is in French. The entire image is framed by a decorative border with intricate patterns and flourishes, typical of woodcut illustrations from the period. The style suggests a historical or religious context, possibly from a medieval or Renaissance text.
