The image is a vintage engraving depicting a stepped pyramid. The pyramid is constructed of horizontal layers of stone blocks, creating a terraced effect. A small, simple building is positioned at the base of the pyramid, providing a sense of scale. Above the pyramid is the text "The outside of the First and Fairest Pyramid." Below the pyramid is an ornate dedication. It reads "To his Grace Thomas Lord of Canterbury, who has been pleased to encourage this work this Plate is humbly Dedicated by Thomas Greenhill." Accompanying this text is a detailed coat of arms, featuring a shield with a cross and other heraldic symbols, topped with a mitre, indicating a religious figure. The style of the engraving is detailed and precise, typical of historical illustrations.
