The image is a vintage-style illustration of a bear. It appears to be a woodcut or engraving, with dense, fine lines creating texture and shading. The bear is depicted in a quadrupedal stance, with its front paws extended forward and its hind paws slightly behind. Its body is robust and rounded, covered in a dense coat of fur indicated by the intricate linework. The bear's head is relatively small in proportion to its body, with a slightly elongated snout and small, rounded ears. The overall style is reminiscent of natural history illustrations from the 18th or 19th century. The background is a plain, off-white color, which emphasizes the dark, detailed figure of the bear. There is text to the left of the bear that reads 'Of the Bear.'
