The image is a hand-colored engraving depicting a scene with a man and an angel. The man, dressed in a long red robe and a brown coat, is holding hands with an angel. The angel is wearing a short blue tunic with red accents, and has large, feathered wings. Both figures are positioned in front of a gnarled tree and a mountainous landscape. The man is holding a book in his left hand. Below the scene is a line of text in German and Latin. The background features a river winding through the landscape, and a cloudy sky. The overall style is reminiscent of 18th or 19th-century illustrations.
