This is a black and white engraving depicting a cherubic angel perched atop a stone base, seemingly part of a classical building. The angel is plump and youthful, with curly hair and a mischievous expression. It's seated with one leg dangling and the other bent, and is holding a rope in its right hand. The rope is attached to a globe, which is partially visible behind the angel. The angel is draped in flowing drapery, and the stone base is decorated with classical motifs. Behind the angel and to the left is a building with a complex facade. The scene is rendered in a detailed, classical style, with a focus on anatomy and drapery. The engraving is signed by the artist in the lower left and right corners.
